Does anyone know where was this issue fixed? Was it a bug in the debian packages or was it upstream? Just out of curiosity :) I suspect that one of the many mp4 fixes that went into 2.2.0~pre4 fixed that. Cheers signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Okay, now I've tried to play a 320p stream in webm and mp4 from YouTube (can't link to those as those links I get in keepvid.com expire after some time, so you'll have to use that tool yourselves), and the webm one streams smoothly while the mp4 one at times stops to buffer. I've looked at the codec details of each file to check if perhaps the mp4 file has a larger bit rate, but it's not even that case (~340kBps for webm compared to ~330kBps for mp4), so indeed it might be related to that bug you mentioned.

Updated to the latest version on unstable, 2.2.0-pre3, and it's still the same.

Thanks. I can confirm the issue. It looks a lot like #7186 in vlc's trac to me. At least I see the same problem with the stream mentioned there.

Thanks. I can confirm the issue. It looks a lot like #7186 in vlc's trac to me. At least I see the same problem with the stream mentioned there. That bug seems to be over 2 years old. What are the next steps that I should take?
