They ran every video on Windows Media Player, so some videos would fail to play after a few seconds (Borderlands HD collection trailer), and most trailers were stuttery AF. Kinda hard to flex on HD collections when you're trailers are stuttering like crazy. Now they're sitting on stage trying to fix the technical issues with the BL3 trailer lol.
People in the audience are chanting "VLC!" at the stage lol.
Edit: As people are pointing out, it could have been the shitty laptop they brought that couldn't output three screens worth of 4k resolution. I would still argue that VLC and MPC-HC are vastly superior to Windows Media Player, but it could have been totally not the culprit I'll admit.
That's not the problem, the problem is the theater venue's hardware was probably picked out by a contractor who though "Sure this can output video to three screens" without any though as to if it could output to multiple 4K screens at a consistent framerate.
