May be there is something that is using the CPU. Are the videos only slow or the whole system ?

I have the same card 950GMA and the same Mac OS 10.4.8 but i don't have such problem. I looked for the system profile and your support Quartz and CI so there should be no issues.

Go to Utilities > Activity Monitor (Just like Task Manager in Windows) and try to play movies and see what is happening.

The dvd player process works ok, i have a question about the activity monitor inspection because it shows the next information in files and open ports

AppleIntel915GA.plugin its ok?

I have to say - when I moved all the 915 kexts away, my system barely ran and came up as not CI & QE and only worked proper when I put back the 915 kexts. I did NOT find any kexts refering specifically to 950, tho my chipset is 950 and I did select the 950 patches when I installed...

I am having problems with GMA950 as well. I installed from JaS "reseed" 10.4.8 disc, and I actually didn't install the GMA950 patch in the custom options right away - I used an nV PCIe card, and then installed the GMA950 patch after install. QE/CI both enabled, everything seems hunky dory & quite fast.... except for Quicktime.

 

DVD player works fine.

Quicktime will play Quicktime movies, but the screen is just white - no picture.

AVI files crash QT completely.

I'm not quite sure where to go from here, pretty new to all of this but learning quickly.

After eliminating AppleIntel915 kexts files it deactivates CI & QE, i try to reinstall Jas.10.4.6.GMA.950.Support.pkg of Jas DVD 10.4.8 and the video problem continues

 

The VRAM is not posible to change more memory in bios because the ram is dynamic on my dell 6400
