I sub to the HD feeds of Tekzilla, Diggnation and TRS in iTunes and they never look particularly smooth. They kinda look like they're only 15FPS or have been badly deinterlaced with drop frames mode or something.

I've tried watching the vid in Plex ('cos that tends to play ropey vids the most smoothly) but that didn't help. Also, as they said in the last Tekzilla I made sure that itunes plays the 720p apple movie trailers smoothly and it does.

What is it with rev3's HD that is so nasty? It's particularly noticeable on Tekzilla poor Patrick and Veronica always look like they have the jitters.

What's your specs? Have you tried running the latest CCCP (http://www.cccp-project.net/)? (Just use the default options when you install) For some reason, the ffdshow filters that come with quicktime alternative don't jive with the mpeg4 encoding that Rev3 uses, so I just use the CCCP codecs in combination with quicktime alt, and it plays just fine.
