I had a jerky problem with AVI files when I used a SB Pro with the original drivers for SBPRO, When I used the SB driver, the jerkiness was minimized. I did not find the same problem with the Pro audio spectrum card. When I tried the CDU541 drive, it did not do the videos as well as a Hitachi CDR3750 or Toshiba 3301 or NEC74 using the Future Domain card and drivers. I later bought a Hitachi CDR3750 and PAS 16 for my 25MHz 386, and the 150K videos work fine with no jerkiness. My Oak video card is a bottleneck and must be run at 640×480 256 color to get the best video speed. Only the 300KB videos look like a slid show.
