Choppy Kazaa preview video

Whenever I try to preview a video clip I'm downloading, it's choppy as hell (like 0.5fps). The weird thing is, if I stop the preview and play it again, it'll be smooth as silk until the point it got to when it was in "choppy mode". So I have to endure the whole thing choppy to play it again and have it smooth.

Do any of you experience that too? any way to solve it?

"choppy mode" will be when it gets to a place it hasn't downloaded yet. As you're playing it, it hasn't downloaded that bit yet, so it will just wait til it downloads enough to show the next couple of frames, then it will have to pause again until it downloads some more.

Or at least that's what always happens to me.

I don't think so because suppose I have for example the 5 first seconds playing smoothly. If I stop the preview, preview another clip and then play the first one again, it'll be choppy again.

No one is seeing the same thing?

I kinda agree with Confused here. When the video starts to play. wait 10 minutes & hit play
