Aluminum 2.4 Macbook -- Choppy video playback PLEASE HELP!!!

[brokentelephone]

Hello Internet Friends,

I recently bought my first Mac, and am having a bit of a problem with video playback. I download a lot of shows/movies, and often the screen will pause (the audio will continue), and a few moments later the video will reappear. Also, scrolling forward often yields inverted colours for a few seconds and then the video will readjust.

I am using the VLC Player, and have the 2.4 Macbook with 2 Gigs of Ram!

Is there something I can do?

Thanks in advance.
