Choppy Video Playback, longer app is open

[jtymann]

Guys,

I am having a weird issue with Boxee involving what seems to be a memory leak, but as far as I can tell no memory is leaking.

When I launch Boxee at first it works great, I watch movies and everything is awesome. But the longer Boxee is open, not the more videos I watch but how long the app has been running, all video playback begins to get choppy.

At first I thought it was a memory leak, but the amount of memory used by Boxee does not increase, and the amount of CPU usage stays the same.

Also closing and reopening Boxee has no effect on the playback. In order to restore normal playback I need to restart the computer.

Usually I can have boxee open for 4 hours before playback starts to become unwatchable.

I am running a XP SP3 system with 2.0ghz AMD X2, 2gigs of ram, and a Gefrce 6600 LE. Although I doubt it is a spec problem because playback is fine initially.

I am getting something similar on an install on an older system. Pent 2.8D, 4GB RAM, X600 Radeon card, W7 Home Premium. Very clean install.
