    Default Movies not displaying video, audio works..

    I have a bunch of movies I have been loading on my PC into my network folder which my Boxee recognizes, they are properly named and they all show up in working condition with all the info necessary, but it is frustrating as more movies dont work then ones that actually do......I have a hard time believing that streaming movies is this much of a hastle for everyone that has a Boxee unit. The files I have the most of are AVI files, when I click on them the movie loads and the audio starts, but the screen goes all fuzzy and glitches out the Boxee Box and I have to restart it.

    Does everyone have this problem and have to go through the process of posting the video information and finding a fix for it to work properly, There must be some reason that all the videos do the same thing....Here are some examples of movies
