Moving the playback window is the only way to keep video from stuttering

I have a problem where video stutters every second or two. The playback will freeze, audio continues to play, and then the video will unfreeze to sync with the audio. It always fixes when I reboot the computer, but only for a few days. Then it returns. Simply logging out and back in does not fix the problem.
The biggest clue, it seems, is that the stuttering does not occur if I click on the player window and move the window around. It plays just fine while I'm doing that, but the moment I stop moving the window, even with the mouse button still held down, the problem returns.
It happens with all video players, including Quicktime player and VLC.
It happens in all 5 logins.
It happens with all video file types.
It happens reading from both my internal drives and my external firewire drive.
I have 21 gigs free on my 160 gig HD. Even when I freed up more space it didn't help.
TechTool reports no problems with any subsystem (video, memory, etc.). I tried swapping RAM and even buying new RAM and still the problem occurs.
I tried repairing permissions and checking the drive for errors.
I've spent hours trying to find a solution to this problem. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
(Yes, I posted this problem a while back in a separate topic, but I got nowhere so I thought I'd try a different topic subject)
Thanks for any help.

Okay, some of these are not obviously third-party. Should I just remove them all?
Thanks.

  • Is the only way to keep a behaviour's setting after finish via a keyframe

    Is the only way to keep the final value of a movement behaviour (ie scale, thow etc), once the behaviour ends but the element to which the behaviour was attached hasn't ended, by converting the behaviour to keyframes?
    I can see no other way, although I hope there is one, such as a hold frame or something like that?
    Thanks in advance.

    There's a "End Offset" slider in most behaviors, adjusting that will create a hold value at the end of the behavior. You'll have to extend the behavior's length in the timeline by the same amount as the End Offset to keep the original animation before the hold.

  • My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

    My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

    Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
    There is not a wireless method for importing videos from the iPad's Camera Roll.

    As Bob says, any iMap service can do this. GMail can, iCLoud mail can too.
    Both of these can be used with Mail on any device.

  • Verizon is using the Elipsis tablets to steal data from their customers.  The only way to stop data from registering as cellular data is to pull the SIM card.  This occurs with wifi enabled and cellular,dara disabled.  If,you take your tablet to a Verizon

    Verizon is using the Elipsis tablets to steal data from their customers.  The only way to stop data from registering as cellular data is to pull the SIM card.  This occurs with wifi enabled and cellular,dara disabled.  If,you take your tablet to a Verizonstore they will upgrade your data plan to cover the overage and credit the upgrade.  You will then have to remember to downgrade your plan or continue to pay for more data.  Verizon, how would you feel if I walked into one of your stores and started filling my pockets with merchandise?  If cought can I just give the product back and say "oops, sorry"

    Today, my FCC complaint hit the same person working on the BBB complaint.  Jimmie has been very nice and seems willing to work with this problem.  We have been able to come to an agreement.  I paid the purchase price for the phone and he returned my upgrade and unlimited data plan.  This is what would have occurred if Verizon had given me correct information to begin with.  I am happy with this result.  He also brought quite a few instances concerning the handling of my transfer and upgrade that did not follow proper procedure.  I am also confident that I would not have resolved this without complaining to BBB and or FCC.  Verizon had no interest in solving the problem nor did they show any propensity to keeping a 20 year client.  Even though this last CSR was very polite and helpful, his sole job is to respond to formal Federal and State complaints.  He is required by law to address every complaint and report the reporting agency the agreed upon results - good or bad.  Again, I suggest - If you are not getting the proper customer service, complain to someone outside of Verizon.  Jimmie had not received any complaints registered with Verizon directly and I still have not had any contact with any other management representative that I was told would call.

  • Is the only way to upgrade PS from CS6 to CC is to buy creative cloud?

    Can you no longer purchase the CC upgrade outright for photoshop? Is the only way now to get creative cloud and pay monthly?

    CC has never been available for outright purchase.  CS6 was the last one offered on that model.  Going forward, all future releases will be offered only to Creative Cloud members.

  • If you have forgotten your passcode lock is the only way to unlock is from the original computer?

    If you have forgotten your passcode lock is the only way to unlock the phone to connect to the original computer? Is there no way to connect to itunes? HELP!

    Restoring as a new device means you will loose everything.  You can restore from a backup, but if that backup includes the same passcode you cannot remember now, then it will just put it back in place and you will be right back where you are.  If the backup does NOT include the passcode currently on the device, you can restore from that backup.
    If restoring as new, you will loose any pictures in camera roll not already saved somewhere else (like your computer).  You will loose any contacts also not already saved somewhere else.
    Once you've restored the iPhone though, you can re-sync the contacts and other content from your backup copies on your computer.  iTunes and App store content can always be redownloaded.

  • What's the easiest way to pull videos from icloud?

    Just did an iOS6 upgrade and need to pull a few videos from iCloud.  What is the easiest way to do this?

    The only videos in iCloud are ones that you took on your phone and were stored in the camera roll.  And those are contained in your iCloud backup and can only be retrieved by restoring your phone to the entire backup.  (Unless you mean purchased Movies, which can be redownloaded for free in many countries if permitted by the studio.)

  • What is the best way to manage Videos from the iPhone 3GS

    I want manage videos like pictures.
    All vids is stored in my iPhoto Library.
    What is the best way to sync them ?

    iPhoto supports importing photos and videos from a digital camera that supports capturing video as well as photos.
    If the videos were deleted from your iPhone after the iPhoto import process was complete, and you want to transfer a video or videos back to your iPhone for viewing, you need to transfer the videos to iTunes that you want transfered to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process as with any other video.

  • What is the simplest way to get video from mini DV tapes into computer

    My computer has no firewire connection. What is the simplest way to get the video from my camera (JVC GR-D340EK) ?

    Mikeathome
    Thanks for the reply.
    The reason that I asked if this was a one time thing or not was related to my thoughts about asking you to look at the relative costs of have the DV data capture firewire done professional or by a friend versus going through looking for slots on your computer for a firewire card or purchasing a computer that still comes with a firewire port.
    We will be watching for further developments.
    Thanks.

  • What is the best way to transfer video from a Panasonic HDC-SD60 camcorder on to a DVD using iDVD?

    I am trying to get my Panasonic HDC-SD60 camcorder to transfer video over to a DVD using iDVD.  The iDVD wants the firewire connection to be used,  No mini USB to firewire line exists.  Any help?

    iDVD is part of the iLife suite of apps.
    in this collection, iMovie is the 'importer', esp. via usb from AVCHD-devices like yours.
    plus editor, I mostly doubt, you haven't to 'clean' here&there your recordings
    from there you 'share' to iDVD.
    you'll notice a loss of quality in this process due to  cam is HDef, any videoDVD is always SDef .....

  • What is the best way to upload videos to your PC.

    What is the best way to download videos from your iphone to your PC.

    There's no "best" way per se, and there's differences depending on what application created the video.  If you used the standard Camera app to take the video, simply connect your phone to your computer, after iTunes syncs you can close iTunes or minimize it, and open My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista/7), and in the folder window you'll see a removable device called iPhone with a camera icon.  When you open that window, you'll see the contents of your Camera Roll where you can cut or copy the item, then paste onto Desktop or into another folder.  Other applications have different methods.  Some save to the Camera Roll so you can move those the same way, others, like iMovie, you have to first "share" the video to your Camera Roll after the film is complete, then remove the same way.  Other apps, like Silent Film for example, set up an FTP connection to your LAN and you retrieve the video via an FTP client (or a web browser as web browsers can log into FTP connections).
    Hope that helps.
