VLC is great until it starts spazzing out and doing shit like this. What causes this and is there a fix?

>what causes this
Corrupted/missing frame and differential encoding (probably not the right terminology) putting the wrong pixels in the place of a moving pixel in the next frame

It does that when the file is shit, done with some shit codec and when the file is not fully downloaded or is corrupt so it plays whatever is there does a mess on that piece and keeps playing instead of CRASHING or completely freezing.

Looks like you're using software rendering, which is a user issue. Probably installed it wrong.
