Audio choppy in playback of videos not music files

Recently my itunes wont play my downloaded video files properly. I can see the video but the audio is choppy. I have the latest version of itunes installed and quicktime is current. Can't figure what happened.

Me too!!! Initially, I had the skipping problem with songs, too, but after changing a setting in Quick Time, the songs sound fine. Now my sound problem is just with videos (purchased TV shows, music videos, or video podcasts)
When I play the videos in my iPod they sound fine.
I want to be able to preview in iTunes.
Hopefully someone out there can help us!

How much RAM have you got? Processor speed? How many programs do you have open at the same time as iTunes?

It sounds like an old fashioned "slow computer" thing to be happening...
