Default 2.3 Video playback problem

I wonder if enyone has this problem(and if there is a solution)- i have an mp4 video -1 hour 20 minutes, 800x480, bitrate of about 1500-8000 kbits/s. It runs perfect on stock 2.2 android, but as i installed 2.3(tried both official and unofficial builds) it began to lag near the end of the video(first half of it plays perfect). The situation repeats with all videos that are longer then an hour or so.

Same thing repeats in stock player and mx video player(with hardware decoder, software decoder works fine, but that loads CPU, and lags at high bitrate spikes)

Maybe it has unsufficient free memory left
Try to kill some apps before play the video
Or if it's an auto-run-to-background app,block it for a moment
See if it's doing some change

I've been streaming via share folder on ubuntu the whole movie all the time without any glitch using mx video player. If ur video store in sdcard, maybe check the card.

I don't think that something is wrong with SD-card because i've tried my 8 gb 6 class card and stock 2 gb card, and second half video lags on both of them. As for the RAM i checked it - there is about 230+ mb when i start the video and when i reach the part when it starts to lag it was about 200 mb. But i don't know where is the video buffered to or if the system reports free memory correctly. I'm thinking - as this problem only appears in android 2.3 - could it be that it's LG's fault and maybe they'll fix it in the next undate?
