Problems playing Hi Def files on my computer?

I tried playing some Hi Def downloads on Windows Media Player and it was all choppy, and the sound was having a hard time syncing with the picture. Is there a player I can download that will play these files better? Any help would be appreciated.

    VLC media player is the best for playing HD files. It is very light (requires only a less amount of RAM) helping your computer to run other process when the video is played. VLC supports a large number of formats and it can download from the following link.

    It is absolutely free

    If your computer doesn't have good enough specs, this is no surprise. But if your computer should be able to handle this, read on.

    Sometimes WMP can't play things right due to too much RAM being used. Close all applications and try again. If that doesn't work, try Windows Media Center (if you have it). If THAT doesn't work, try RealPlayer. You can find it at http://www.real.com./
