    Slov video buffer youtube

    Any one else having problem with some youtube vids?
    When I whatch a series of vids some of them tend to buffer extremely slow.
    My internet speed should not cause this. I HATE YOUTUBE

    For the record, Now my video has buffered finish but the vid stops at the midle.

    I've been experiencing this for about the last month on every single video. And it's definitely not my internet connection. Very annoying.

    Very slow. I have a 10Mbps connection and its fine according to the speedtest I just did. YouTube is just being very slow.

    It reminds me of the days when I had an up to 8Mbps connection with Tiscali and it wouldn't get above 512-1Mbps on a good day. Now that made YouTube crawl, and you had to leave a video for at least 5-10 minutes before you could play it successfully. I'm having to do that today, purely because YouTube is being so slow.

    EDIT: Tried one video, left it five minutes to type this post, went back to play it - got a whole 38 seconds before it stalled and had to buffer again. I guess YouTube is off the agenda as far as doing something tonight goes...

    I have been noticing this for a while now. I have to leave the video paused for a few minutes to let it buffer. And it is only youtube where I have this problem...

    Fun fact. It's always super hard to contact any major company via email.
    They always have different addresses for specific subject but never the one you're on.
