G3 iBook jerky divx?

Hi,
I just got a G3 700mhz iBook and when I try to play DivX the motion is jerky. Now maybe its just too old I dunno, but I know my 700MHz duron plays them fine and I thought apples were meant to be better for the number of MHz. So what’s going on? I have tried VLC and that is jerky as well. XviD plays slightly better but still not perfect. Cheers, Simon
