Installed VLC 2.2.8 and it had the same issue on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.1. Total freeze of video for 3 seconds while sound keeps playing. And much worse keyboard and the touchpad are also none responsive. Meaning the whole macbook is frozen for 3 seconds. Can not even adjust the volume! With x264 encoded videos. Going back to VLC 2.0.10.

- Modify File Caching Parameter. In case, the lagging HD video is stored on your local hard drive.
- Go to the VLC media player. Select Tools and Click Preferences option. Then, go to Input / Codecs. Under Show Settings, select All and click on Input / Codecs.
- Requesting VLC to skip two (or more) time intervals ahead or back results in the picture freezing/hanging/pausing for approximately ten seconds before playback resumes at the requested point in time.
- Open the VLC player and press Ctrl + P to open Preference At the bottom of the page, you will see Show settings with two options, select All. Now, go to the Input/Codes section and search for File caching option. Change the value from 300 to 1000 and click on Save.
