Drop outs
Play back might be interrupted now and then by other programs.
Anti virus programs polling the internet at high priority for updates are a known source of problems.
Put the task manager or the Resource Monitor on to locate the process.
Look for CPU peaks, heavy disk access or network traffic.
Setting the player priority to high might help too.
