it makes a big difference.

and did you play back off internal or external hard drive?

catalyst is designed to preserve visual integrity and flow of images- NO DROPPED FRAMES - whatever else goes on in the computer.I know catalyst skips frames, and slow some movies to do not freeze, that is great feature,
It slows the playback down rather than skips frames.
Almost every other piece of playback software - DROPS Frames to do accurate timing.
this produces visual glitches.
Computers are not designed to playback video with a regular rhythm, they do many other things at the same time.
Outside of catalyst worlds - Normally these visual glitches do not matter.
But when playing back graphics or visual FX in the types of shows this has been used on - DROPPED frames can look really bad.

If you use one of the Audio playback modes, then it will keep accurate time.
