Movian

Hi there. I recently encountered some strange behavior and wanted to see, if anyone has encountered something or even found a solution:

When playing a mkv via TVersity (MediaInfo below) vie multiMan, which currently uses version 3.5.043 of Showtime, the video plays perfectly fine. If I use the latest standalone version of Showtime 3.5.128, the movie stutters and does not play well at all. I use the same TVersity server, same network, ... for both.

Anyone any idea?

Cheers!

MediaInfo output of the file in question (though I doubt that's the issue...):
