Roku 2 vs Roku 1 Streaming

We have a private channel with mp4 files. Everything plays beautifully with the Roku 1 but on the Roku 2 the higher bit rate files play out of sync and studder. Can someone give me some direction as to what direction to look to fix this problem.

Thanks for your help

I posted a thread in the regular Roku Streaming Player forum about higher bitrate MP4s not playing correctly through the Roku 2 XS's usb port after a fast forward or rewind. Those same files play fine on the Roku XDS's (Roku 1) USB port. Incidentally there has been some issues with local file support and the Roku 2 which caused Roku to temporarily remove support for MKV, WMV, and MOV files while they work out a fix. At this point I'm assuming the higher bitrate MP4 playback issue is another symptom of that same problem. At this point in time, all you may be able to do is re-encode to a lower bitrate but that may not be feasible
