Hi, I was wondering if others are experiencing the jerky video that I am when watching videos on my MBP C2D. I've tried both QT and VLC and both are really slow. In activity monitor it show the cpu only taking up a max of 12% of the CPU. BTW the jerky video occurs mainly on streaming WMV videos. Today everything seems to be in slowmo and in good days it will play the video for 5 seconds and then stop for 1/2 a second before continuing.
 
If its "jerky" on stream videos, it's your internet connection or the website is slow, it has nothing to do with your computer. Try downloading the video and see if that fixes it.
