Video's pause every 3 seconds

[Hazaro]

Yeah, I mean that's about it. Youtube, collegehumor, and some other video site all do the same thing.

Any ideas?

*This is only on internet, PC video is fine ;)

Specs? have you tried www.ccleaner.com

[Hazaro]

Just ran it, same thing. I just updated Firefox, lemme run on IE for a second.

*Same thing for IE.

It's also every 2 seconds to be exact.

Have you tried clearing up your start up? is your memory full?

have you tried letting the video buffer all the way and let the clip play? www.speedtest.net what speeds are getting?

Sounds like a buffering issue to me. Check you internet bandwidth. Also make sure you arent downloading other stuff when doing the videos.

I had ran CCleaner before (I run it very often, at least twice a week), I've let the video buffer all the way, my speeds are fine, and I'm not downloading or uploading anything.

Specs are in signature, my 2GB of RAM is at 700MB usage, I will empty my browsers cache and see if that helps...

Happens on google video and stage6 as well.

Had a problem with media casts and real media that was kinda like you describe and it was related to my security settings and that I would not eat their cookies, so you may want to check that.

Have you installed any new codecs lately? Because it may be codec related.

You can try reinstalling the XP codec pack

I got CCCP and other codecs.

It seems to be working now. The only thing I changed was a few restarts and plugged in speakers.

(I had restarted before and the problem remeained)

As long as it's fixed though...
