If I use VLC the video breaks up badly, if I use Mplayer the sound/beats slow down. iTunes is not much better. Is it just that I have an old, slow, PowerPC machine and it can't cope?
I love the series and had no problems with the WMV versions, but MP4 seems to be a real problem.

Try Quicktime
Indictment: Quicktime's lack of support for many popular video codecs and its inability to properly download them often makes it a bummer to use.
Superior Alternative(s): VLC, MPlayerX, Perian
Notes: VLC has been the go-to Quicktime replacement for Mac users for a while and its support for nearly every video format makes it easy to recommend. If you'd prefer to use multi-touch gestures to do the same thing, MPlayerX is one of the best that integrates all the fancy new tricks of Lion. That said, if you enjoy using Quicktime but want to play more formats, Perian adds native support to every video format directly into Quicktime.
Hoping this helps
