Youtube Troubles

[Vdubdavid]

I know there was a thread about this a while back, but has anyone else had trouble getting videos on Youtube to play properly? Nine times out of ten, the film will play in fits and starts, and then cut off before it was meant to end. Does anyone know what I'm speaking of? Could it have something to do with the wireless connection I have?

Vdubdavid,

Try pressing the pause button right when the video starts. Watch the indicator bar, which shows the progress of the download. A lighter indicator bar indicates the progress of the download while a heavier bar indicates how far into it you are viewing. The latter cannot be ahead of the former. When the video is completely downloaded, press the button again (now it is a play button) and the video should play without interruption.

For those with dail-up, it will be pretty frustrating. To fully appreciate You Tube, you'll need a broadband connection, or failing that, DSL.
