This doesn't seem to be the case. I have redone my test using the movie
clip that is shipped with psychopy in order to minimize the chance that
my movie encoding is the source of the problem

/usr/share/pyshared/psychopy/demos/coder/stimuli/jwpIntro.mov

Even with a frame size of 40x30 it reports dropped frames (although at
this size I cannot confirm their presence visually anymore). I tried h264, mp4,
mpeg2 and mpeg1, which should be increasingly easier to decompress, and
I tried different bitrates -- nothing makes the clip play smooth.

At the same time I see no significant CPU usage on an i7-3667U CPU @ 2.00GHz.

Most of the tests happened on machines with INTEL hardware, but on
NVIDIA hardware I see the same issue.
