[Solved] Problem with video and audio stuttering

Hello everyone :)
From time to time some video files playback stutters for me. After some time playback 90% of time goes back to normal, sometimes it doesn't.
I have noticed today in debug this info:
DEBUG 2018-02-20 18:56:55.902 [mencoder.exe-4-2] [mpeg2video @ 01fd8940]rc buffer underflow
DEBUG 2018-02-20 18:56:55.903 [mencoder.exe-4-2] [mpeg2video @ 01fd8940]max bitrate possibly too small or try trellis with large lmax or increase qmax
How can I fix this problem?
Thank you very much in advance! :)

Have you tried to use FFmpeg (which is the default transcoding engine) instead of Mencoder?

Yes, I've tried to use mencoder becouse sometimes problem didn't happen then.
With ffmpeg:
DEBUG 2018-02-21 20:09:56.405 [ffmpeg64.exe-4-2] [vob @ 000000000451eb40] packet too large, ignoring buffer limits to mux it

And this message seems to happen when problem pops-in.

Is your CPU powerful enough? What CPU do you have?

I5-3570k, 8GB RAM, Windows 10. Although problems like these I had even when I had Win8.1.

Hmm, that should be plenty. I was just an idea, but it seems like a dead end.

I thought that maybe my HDD is a problem, but I have tried and moved files to SSD but it didn't help.

The discussion is worthless when you not follow the instruction written in red above and not send the log.

Zippyshare is full of intrusive ads and generally inconvenient for us, so I'm attaching the file here.
