Problem with videos on auto play?

I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else or maybe if there is a windows/graphics setting i need to change to avoid the following problem?

When have several videos in line to play and play them in auto play, I have noticed that several times a video will stop with one second left and NOT PROCEED to the next video automatically, as expected. I have to manually stop the song and place the cursor on the next one and star it.

can anyone even create this or may it be the specific computer I have that causes this?

This sounds like memory problem. Not that it is bad but that you are running out by doing several videos in a row on auto. There is no time for memory to clear between videos.
This could be key to your other problem too.

I use the mpg format, can this be the problem, gduns.

Also, on another note, I will be getting a shuttle antecx aria> I think it was you thatmentioned you used one. Can you list the specs on yours(or perhaps it is on your messages now that I can't see). And can I list for you my planned specs before I purchhase for your perusal and any recommendations. I also use VDJ, but rarely at the same time, too tricky?

Well, I have 2 systems, i1 is listed in my signature, and one is a hp zd8000 laptop. B0th do video and karaoke as well. on the laptop, I have an 80gig hard drive, and 2 gig ram with an external 500 gig hard drive.

I tried ripping to different video formats, and .avi was the smallest, and the best quality.

You mention memory problem, are you saying HD free space or ram memory?
