If not, it might be that the hardware is not powerful enough. At the end of the day, playing back 1080p videos requires a decent amount of CPU and a decent graphics card. If you have a very old system or a system that is even a couple of years old, it may be time to invest in a new machine or to upgrade the graphics card/memory/hard drive.
