When playing NTSC material, you MUST set the DXR3 to NTSC timing with 
the em8300setup tool. It will then be smooth :) I had the same problem 
and was cursing for 30 minutes until a lightbulb went off... ;)

I am using pre 10 with -vo dxr3:sync -ao oss:/dev/em8300_ma-0 and it 
works perfectly. Using -vp dxr3:prebuf:sync uses too much CPU and does 
not improve things (at least for me).
