So I need some help with this. I've got an iMac with Leopard on it. It's got a ton of 1080p movies on it. I have set up smb sharing to share my movies (in the movies folder) over my gig-e network.

I've got an hp with Vista 64 Home Premium on it. I have an aftermarket gig-e PCIe card with apparently working drivers. I am able to see the shared folders from my mac, and even access them. Moreover in xbox media center I got it to access the shared folders on my mac.

Unfortunately, it seems after a while (seems data dependent not time dependent) the movie will stop playing or stutter. This happens both in XBMC and VLC.
