is if full hd with dts sound ? and do you have dts capable receiver connected ?

Because of your comment firstly I turned off ac3 and dts supported receiver in settings, since I have no receiver. Then some sample downloads finished and I began running 720p videos to see if any work. Here are the details of those who worked smoothly vs. those that stutterd (via network).

Anything stands out here as to why 1st two stutter while 2nd two run smooth effortlessly?
