Jasper, yes, I should have added the Plus, but I was more interested in the actual numbers, which were correct. FYI, there is no ordinary VS11.5 without the Plus, by the way, unlike VS11/11+. As for my comment about there not having been an original VS11.5+, the box labeled VS11.5+ sold by Corel and others, as far as I am aware, contains VS11+, not a full, already updated version of VS11.5+. You install VS11+ but still have to install the 6 November 2008 update patch and then the 8 November Power Pack to get full VS11.5+ functionality.
As for the long delays in reacting, that is one of the many side effects with AVCHD -- although 23 seconds sounds long, even for that. Mind you, while a Core 2 Duo can handle AVCHD in its native format, your laptop is at the bottom end of the Core 2 Duo range and the added slowness could be a result of that. As far as possible, I would be using only my Quad for AVCHD. Even on mine, I get several seconds delay when dealing with AVCHD even for VS to highlight an AVCHD thumbnail, let alone play it. It is just an incredibly demanding format!!!
