Try Apple Intermediate Codec - it is a JPEG based codec but highly optimized for multiple cores and has a reasonable compressed size.  Avoid H.264, Divx and anything MPEG.

Hi folks

Trying to play some 4-8 minute videos with sound. Using Gem (pix_film
+ readsf~) it's working but I get lots of clicks, even with higher
latency, unless I split it into 2 instances. I get the feeling this
may be a codec/compression thing, but I don't know enough about it to
make an informed decision.

I'm on a new MacBook Pro, but the installation will eventually be
running on a slightly older computer, maybe a MacBook without
dedicated graphics.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

cheers
