sounds like a codec issue or a crazily encoded divx file. How does it play on PC? I havent seen xbmc choke on any divx codec yet.

Maybe it is in very high bitrate. Remember there is only a 766 MHz CPU with 64MB to play the file.

I highly doubt that you have MPEG-4 files (divX/Xvid/whatever) that the XBox cannot display.

I have a 1280x720 DivX file that plays fine (just a few dropped frames at the beginning while XBMC is sorting out the quality of postprocessing to use)

On the other hand, I have some 1920x1080 MPEG2 files that do play stuttery - almost a slideshow at some points.  XBMC plays them better than my PC does, however (Duron 850/Geforce 2MX)

Have you tried playing them from the XBox HDD?
