I'm having a hard time finding the best settings for Media Player Classic so that it could play videos on my weak netbook without stuttering so badly. I tried several recommended ways to reduce the lagging:
- Disabling subtitles − this helps a bit in general and a lot if there are colorful subtitles (anime);
- Selecting Enhanced Video Renderer (Custom presenter) with D3D Fullscreen enabled − small improvement in fullscreen, but introduces inconvenience of no visible controls;
- Selecting Overlay Mixer Renderer − great improvement in performance, but scaling is very low quality;
What are the other options to reduce choppiness of video on weak computers?

how weak a computer? What's the bottleneck? (task manager should give you a clue). What version of windows? What resolution is the screen and what resolution are the videos? – Journeyman Geek – 2015-09-16T22:56:45.647
Windows 7, Asus EEEpc 1101ha, 1366x768. Bottleneck seems to be resolution when downscaling from FullHD, and perhaps average bitrate is sometimes too high. – user1306322 – 2015-09-16T23:18:09.717
