Ok, so I'm having a majorly annoying problem with my videos. The audio gets dragged out and glitchy, like an echo (not sure how to describe it) every so often during the video. While this happens, the video slows down (which isn't all that obvious). For some reason, this doesn't happen with any new videos I download, which might be because its a different type of file. I'm not exactly sure on this, as I can't test every file I have. At first I thought it might be my codecs, but i've updated every codec i can think of, which didn't change anything. This has only happened recently, mind you, and I did no significant changes to my computer since then. It doesn't matter which player I use either, as they are all like that, albeit, some less than others. The problem hardly happens at all with sound files. I've even checked my task manager and my computer isn't lagging at all to cause it to do that. Its very strange to me, as I can't think of anything that would cause it. I hope its not that the files have been damaged in some way, as some of them are very hard to find.
