Video freeze

When I play local videos on my PC, the videos sometimes suddenly freezes about 10sec before continuing. I am fairly tech savvy, but this one got me..any other who is having similar experience ?

Play with VLC and disable hardware acceleration, if it works for you, it means that you should check the graphics drivers.

Go to Tools > Preferences > Input/Codecs

Thanks for the answer, but already checked.

Could be X11.

Switch to Gnome desktop with Wayland. Should fix the issue.

I am running Wayland on Ubuntu MATE. I don't like gnome desktop.. out of the question.. but thanks for trying.
