It's too much for this P4... it's not for nothing the new i3, i5, i7 processors has specific pieces of hardware to encode/decode this high compressed videos...
I was curious about that, and I searched wikipedia, and checked that this p4 was released by the years of 2000 up to 2006. The first draft of H.264/MPEG-4 AVC codec was finally released in 2003. So, you know what I mean... I guess you might have much better luck on DivX and Xvid videos, and probably with a maximum of 720p as Federico says. Nowdays we have some very specific hardware, as those apple TV, google TV on android devices, that are able to play this files with a clock of about 1Ghz up to 1.8Ghz, but these were projected to do so... 2013/7/15 Federico Leoni <effe...@gmail.com> > 2013/7/15 Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com>: > > > > On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 5:17 PM, Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com > > > > wrote: > >> > >> Hi, > >> > >> Problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blgJ-v2IkVI > >> Idle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Wmaxoo6Cpg > >> > >> I have no idea if you can tell from the video or not?
