Scrubbing in VLC is the most annoying thing ever.

Are you sure you haven't messed up some setting? I don't get any more pixellation with it than with MPC...

And I second the scrubbing comment. That too is my one beef with VLC.

What's scrubbing?

scrubbing is when you click & hold the progress slider and drag it to different points
that allows you to skip to different parts of a file (forward or backwards)

Ahhh.

I can see where there can be problems.

VLC has done the pixellation since I first installed it. I have no idea what's making it do that...

I forgot about the scrubbing issue. Yeah, that's a serious pain.
