Macbook Pro video playback problem

I am using a Macbook Pro Retina display to playback video. The ATEM is set at 1080i, 59.54, as-well as the Macbook. My issue is that when playing out video using Quicktime, it seems to jerky a-bit and creates a double image (fuzzy look), this issue is not constant, but I want perfect playback. I have tried 1080i and 720 all at 59.94, 50 seems to be worse. Could it be from my Macbook Retina? then again I have tried with my old Macbook. If anyone has experience with using video playback with computers, please tell how I can fix this, and quickly.

Thank you in advanced.

Update: I tried a computer via HDMI to play a DVD, I still got a choppy skip frame-rate look.

What software are you using to playback the files?

What codec?

I am using only Quick Time to play back the video, and the Codecs are H.264,AAC.

I have also found the Mac book pro Retina to have difficulty with H.264. Maybe the added Pixels and the extra scaling involved are too much for the CPU or GPU. Make sure you are plugged into power because one of the buried power settings causes the MBP to switch to the Intel onboard Graphics to save battery power. Or just Un-check the Automatic Graphics switching box in the Power settings menu.

I find windows 7 on an AMD or ATI graphics chip does better with H.264 decoding because the ATI drivers handle decode in the GPU and are much more efficient. I have an Acer 11.5" Windows 7 machine with dual core AMD Fusion CPU that records and plays the H.264 Files without stutter and only costs 1 sixth the cost of the Mac Book Pro Retina

Thank you for the reply. I do have a windows 7 Desktop with specifications;

Intel I7 3.6Ghz
8GB RAM
GeForce GTX 670

I tend to use my Macbook Pro because it's mobile. On another note does anyone know a good playback software for video and graphic overlay instead of ProPresenter5 and playback pro?

Thank you.

MXplayer is amazing and is free at appstore

Have tried using my PC instead of my Mac, I still get the same problem? Any idea why?
