Divx/Xvid video clipping/stuttering issues on TCPMP/Mogul

Hey all. When I attempt to use tcpmp to play a divx/xvid file I get only about 2 to 3 frames per second. Audio is fine. Here's specs on on the type of file I'm trying to play:
Location: storage Card
Format: DIVX (.avi)
Duration: 41 minutes (it's an episode of Hero's)
Filesize: 87 megs (pretty small I think for a "1hr" tv episode)
Video: MPEG4
Codec: CoreASP
Video size: 320x180
Framerate: 29.970
Audio: MP3
Format: 22050 Hz Mono
Databit rate: 24 kbit/s

After playing for a few seconds TCPMP also says this:
Played frames: 616
Dropped Frames: 8
Played FPS 29.581

System RAM is about 17 to 20 megs usually. I have not installed the new ROM, but I can't imagine that should do anything. Storage card is Kensington 2Gig MicroSD. I do have the 5/6 multitab Touch home screen plugin stuff also if any of that makes a difference.

Now it may be playing them all but I'm only seeing like 3 frames per second. I don't know if it's a codec thing , settings thing, or my version of TCPMP (which is 0.72RC1 by the way). Am I the only one with this problem. Without my video moving smoothly I'd rather not even watch it. I get so jealous hearing all you others talk of your cool Slingboxes working great over the internet, but I can't seem to get a local movie to work?

(also unrelated: this site seems to load so slowly versus anyother site I'm on. I'm on highspeed and it seems just this site. Scrolling is slooow and everything about it seems slow. I don't mind just wondering if again there is something I need to "check" somewhere in my browser. Also I'm referring to my desktop not the phone for browsing this site.)
