HI, it's me, MiM back from months of inactivity! Sorry if I had missed anything great. Also, thanks for putting my art at the bottom of the page.
So I torrented a movie today and tried to play it. The opening credits part was all good, but after that the video would lag sometimes. The sound didn't lag, though.
At first I thought it was the player problem, so I switched from SMPlayer to mpv player. Well, the video would lag AT THE EXACT SAME PART. So I didn't test VLC after that, and started suspecting it was the file itself broken. The torrent download progress itself, however, was complete.
I've met this problem one time before when I downloaded a Criterion movie, and all stuff it included(trailers, interviews, etc.) lagged painfully! Maybe it was not the file size problem.
Have you ever met this problem before? Anyone has idea what's going wrong? :facepalm

I've had movies lag due to encoding issues in the past.
If you'll post a link to the torrent in question, I'll download it and see if it lags for me.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. The video went playing smoothly after playing for a longer time however...

There was an another torrent with VERY serious lagging problems, and I deleted it because it was unwatchable. I guess you can try that out.
