For quite a while now, our downstairs PC was having issues with MPC-HC.
Whenever the machine had been running for quite some time, or resumed from a suspend state, you would get a slight jitter with playback in MPC-HC that comes bundled with the K-Lite Codec Pack.
Before that, I used K-Lite without problems for donkeys' years.

That is actually a bit of an issue though, since being a media server is about the only job that the machine has.

VLC runs fine but, like Windows Media Player, it won't advance to the next file in the folder automatically, which is a bit of a drawback if you want to marathon 5 seasons of Andromeda.

It's hard to blame the GPU when I was having similar problems with my poor old HD 7870, and the RX 6500 that got put in a few months ago.

The new Windows Media Player app runs fine, but is a bit clunky, so the next answer is MPC-BE, which is an open-source fork of MPC-HC.
So far, this looks to have fixed the problem.
