I have Windows 98 and when I play .avi files, they don't play right.....I have the proper codec and all, .avi has never worked well for me :P...

Does anyone know where I can DL torrents that aren't .avi's and has naruto?

Or is this really a problem I have, because .avi always plays but just skips like fricken crazy ><

if it is choppy your computer probably can't decode fast enough or your video card is just too slow

AVI is a generic extension meaning Audio/Video Interleave. What are your system specs? What Player are you using?

Try MPlayer or VLC. They're both stand-alone players that are not dependant on DirectShow and it's codecs and thus produce fewer conflicts. Plus, they're 20-40% faster.

Stick with basic players that are simple, like mplayer2.exe, that is on every windows based computer nowadays in the Windows Media Player folder.

Or it just might be your computer not having enough resources to play the file without interruptions...sort of like when you play mp3s with low system resources (it'll skip all the time). If that's the case you'll be stuck upgrading your computer.

But seeing as how .avi is the most popular, the most widely used, and probably the most stable (IMO) of all the formats, you probably won't find Naruto in any other format.

Really no one can say unless you give system specs as mentioned already.
