If no, all bets are off; A 3.8GHz Pentium 4 may or may not be able to handle high-bitrate h264 (assuming hardware-accelerated decoding isn't being used), even with CoreAVC software decoding.

On the other hand, I have yet to find  a consumer dual-core with a maximum clock speed of at least 1.6GHz that cannot handle high-end h264 video with CoreAVC software decoding (assuming no heavy-crunching karaoke effects).

I don't think the symptoms fit to the case of slow computer Doctor Kureshii. No matter how slow, the computer wont say the file is corrupt, it will just skip the frames.

It should be noted that only DivX player reports the file as corrupt (whatever that means to DivX Player). 'Buggy video playback' is about as vague as feedback gets (but better than 'doesn't work', I guess). But as you said, the surest way to know if it's corrupt or not would be to check the file hash.

AniDB reports 1080p Ep1 as having CRC hash 93EC8681 (verified). If the CRC hash of your file (generated with a hashing program e.g. HashCheck) does not match that, then the file is corrupted.

Come in kioshi, come in. What is your status, over.

Ahh, I think we lost the patient doctor  ::)

ohh, that one. I thought apps other than DivX player were properly designed to handle streaming data (internet, network etc), so that when they encounter a corruption in the stream, they tend to recover the data, but the result would be buggy (only if we had a ss) . It possibly would not matter whether the file was local or not (since it is impossible to determine whether a file is local or not) once you develop such a mechanism, the app would render the video.

If you got Windows Media Player to even recognize the file, that means your computer has some codec pack or other installed. I can't be sure of exactly what you did from the posts but I am guessing that you installed CCCP and CoreAVC on top of another codec pack. Very much the recipe for disaster.

My Recommendation:
1.) Get rid of every player. They are of no use to you (except Windows Media Player, that one probably won't leave your system anyway)
2.) Get the CCCP Insurgent, and delete every codec pack and individual codec stuff it finds (even CCCP and stuff, just to be sure)
3.) Then install CCCP, and in the settings menu make sure you check the option that says Autoload VS Filter (in the second menu after you click next)
4.) Try playing the file then with the only player you should have left: Windows Media Player (cause I'd be stunned if you managed to un-install that without messing up something or other in your system).
5.) Then, the only remaining problem would be your system resources. If, and only if, your computer is on the verge of being able to play the file flawlessly should you go for CoreAVC. If your computer just sucks then even that program won't be able to do much for you. CoreAVC's real advantage is offloading to GPU, and that works especially well if you have an Nvidia card.

If you have an old Windows Media Player, then use the MPC included with the CCCP. If on the other hand you have WMP 11 or especially if you have 12, then don't worry about it.
