I ended up playing videos through media player classic on my ext.desktop and all went well. Which leads me to believe that it is Hoster giving me the issues. I think I will just continue to play videos outside hoster till I figure this mess out.

i thinks its the graphic card, and not Hoster..does the stuttering happens on extended display and have you tried playing the videos on just your main monitor ? the reason i asked was that i have the same issues, i havent tried playing music videos on Hoster yet, played just plain vcd and i have no problems, i've been djing lately and i've been playing some music videos using a vdj program, no problem of any kind when playing music videos just on my main monitor and wmp..i get stuttering and out of sync when it's extended to the 2nd and 3rd 22" lcd monitors..but the problem goes away when the screen is minimize.. and also check your cpu usage...does your main monitor and 2nd monitor has the same refresh rate they should be around 60hz.. (european should be around 50hz ) and does both monitors set to its native resolution ( 1920 x 1080 or whatever ?)

Might be worth re-checking your basic K-Lite settings before tweaking with Gspot.
If your version of K-lite is anything like mine find this setting: Start/All Programes/K-Lite Codec Pac/Configuration/Reset to recommended settings. This takes us back to a level playing field to work from.
Now open the configuration settings again and choose Haali Media splitter, click the options Tab then the + for the input, select "Try to open linked files" in the bottom window where it shows value select "No" then press OK. This particular setting helps with opening .vob files faster.
Lastly set your gspot to Kens latest settings.

Let us know if this has made any improvments.
