I just noticed while showing a friend some funny videos I have that they are not clear and smooth. I never noticed them like this on my other machine which was a pentium4 786 mb ram, nvidia Gforce 4,. My dvd's are playing pretty smooth, but all my saved videos are not. Any clues or tips? I have attached a snap shot, hope it helps.

Stupid question, but have you tried this clip on a different pc? As it looks like it was filmed from CCTV which if it's tapes can mean poor quality when transfered to a pc or a high level of compression.

How big are the files that you're trying to play?

What software are you using to open them? Have you tried using different software?

I am using WMP 11, Cyberlink, and Nero Show Time. Most of the files are, Bit rate= 414Kbps, Video sample size 24bit, Size of file 2.37 MB.

That's an analog video, converted to digital. Low quality results from "digital distortion". Try uploading a digital video from raw capture and see the difference.
