Q:

How to fix choppy sound replay with VLC

I've got a problem with vlc playing some file formats, for example mkv or m2ts (I didn't notice this problem with avi though). The sound plays ok, than dissappears for a second or two, than re-appears. It occurs around once every 10 seconds. This is really annoying and prevents me from using VLC for those files, which, by the way, play completely ok in Media Player.
Here's what I already tried to do about it:

Change VLC sound output method
Re-install k-lite codec pack
Re-install/upgrade VLC

My configuration is:

Soundcard: Asus Xonar Essence
Operating system: Windows 7
Codecs: K-Lite

What else could I try to fix this issue?

A:

in VLC...
Tools – Preferences - Select Input & Codecs option ...
Look for "Skip the loop filter for H.264 decoding " or “Skip H.264 in-loop deblocking filter” and select ALL from the drop down list.
Save the preference and play the video.
