Video Playback is inconsistent

Some of my video files play fine, but others play back with a lot of video artifacts, as if the i3 can't read the video fast enough. Looks like pixelation.

- The exact same video files play back on my M3 perfectly while being buggy in the i3
- The exact same video file on the exact same usb thumb drive plays on my M3 perfectly while being buggy in the i3.
- Other video of the same file type (mp4, m4v) playback fine, so it's not that.
- All my videos are h264
- Data rates don't show a pattern. Some of my high bit rate files play fine, while some low ones don't and vice versa.
- I've tried different USB thumb drives, same result.

Anyone have this same problem? Any fixes? Video formats that work for sure?


What version iDrive does my 2015 i3 have? I want to check other BMW model forums to see if they have the same problem.
