This is a quite high resolution file.
Is this on a "native" machine or in a virtual machine?
What is the CPU use level when this happens?

This looks like a limitation of the graphics hardware. How do other 720p files work under the same conditions? Do they skip frames?

As far as Earth-The.Power.of.the.Planet.mkv is concerned there is already a bug #303132 for it regarding frame skiping.But the video elephantsdream-720-h264-st-aac.mov plays very well and smoothly.

The previous comments about video Discovery.Channel.100.Greatest.Discoveries.mkv playback on VLC were based on windows7 VM on mac parallels ,when tested on a physical windows7 machine the video plays well on VLC(without skipping frames).On moovida it does skip frames.On VM VLC doesn't play videos without skipping frames.

That bug is I believe equivalent to bug #303132.

When fixing it please make sure the file "Earth-The.Power.of.the.Planet.mkv" plays fine without frame skipping.

The latest free moovida 1.09 does not get any maintenance since a while. Now moovidadb.com is supporting Linux and support can be found at : http://www.fluendo.com/faq/
