I might have got this wrong, but I think I've read somewhere that 1080 vids don't play back correctly on the laptop because it's not a 1080 resolution screen? To play them correctly you need to use the HDMI (maybe VGA too) and output to a screen/TV that supports 1080.

MPC HC will still display 1080p vids correctly. However, the image will be downscaled to the monitor's maximum resolution (720p). It's correct that the HDMI output supports 1080p. I've been doing this for weeks and it works great.

The OP's issue is likely driver related. Try removing your old drivers and installing the latest non-beta drivers from nvidia. CoreAVC 2.0 is a good alternative, but it is not free like MPC HC.

Actually i don't think that my playback is perfect, its better with MPC but it still looks like there's a slight judder.

Right this is interesting, I've received my Windows 7 through the post today and have now got it installed. The other day I downloaded the T2 1080 HD video from the Microsoft site, the HD video runs much smoother under Windows 7 than it does in XP SP3, at least it does on my 311.

Some thoughts..
Is this all 1080p.. what sort of AV format are you trying?
Running this from the 311s HD? There was some discussion of HD drivers causing pauses in windows and a fix.
Tearing? Try forcing VSync in the NVidia control panel
Try Windows Media Player in WIn 7 as that also supports GPU acceleration, see if the problem is seen with that

You can also use K-Lite. It's a bundle with all needed codecs/settings and MPC

For the record, 1080p video streaming from the web stutters, period, the 311 is not powerful enough for 1080p flash. 1080p mp4, and any other format plays fine once downloaded and ran from the HDD. Thats the end of that discussion.

1080p Youtube works silky smooth for me...
