From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For a little over a month now, when playing videos on firefox, VLC, or any other application, I get infrequent stutters. This is with or without hardware accelleration. It's as if the video pauses briefly. If multiple videos are playing, even across different applications, each of them will be effected at the same time.

I had this happen with multiple programs for a while, and I found out that my computer had changed the cpu governor from "perfomance" to "power save"

My cpupower profile was set to power save. I just switched it to performance and will give it some time
