After updating my 2012 MacBook Pro 15" to Yosemite, my downloaded video files have trouble staying A/V synced. Every 10 minutes or so, there's a skip and the sync is broken. I can realign it by reviewing the video 10-15 seconds.

This happens regardless of video player or video file type. At first, I thought it was VLC and I tinkered with it's settings, which did not change anything.

Later, I realized it goes across programs (VLC, QT, MPEG Slipstream, MPlayer Extended OS) and file types (mp4, mkv, etc.)

I can play them on my other laptop (Macbook Air 2013 13") with no problem. Same files, same programs.

Any ideas what's wrong with my MBP?

Thanks!

It could be the hard drive. Try putting the files on an external drive (flash or USB) and see if you have the same issues. If not, boot from the restore disk and run Disk Utility to check the drive.
