iTunes 10.7 update made video choppy on 2009 MacMini
I have the following setup:
MacMini3,1
Intel Core 2 Duo
2.53 Ghz
4 GB RAM
MM31.00AD.B00
1.35f1
MacOS 10.6.8
The MacMini is attached through Mac Adapater to a DVI input on an older TV.
I run Eye TV and iTunes and have been very happy with the setup for a long time.
Recently with the latest update to iTunes (10.7) all video play on the MacMini now stutters (the audio is fine but the video has a noticeable recurring stutter every 1-4 seconds).
I have tried reseting the PRAM, the SMC, as well as downgrading to a previous version of iTunes but nothing has alleviated the problem.
Video playback in Eye TV or in Netflix (through Safari) is fine as long as iTunes is not running. Video playback in any application has the issue if iTunes is running. All video playback in iTunes suffers the problem as well.
Any thoughts? I tried to go through the support request but my machine is old, my OS is old, and even though it is a new software update that broke my setup it doesn't look like I can get anyone from Apple to support w/o paying $50.
Thanks in advance...
Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
