Media Player Help??


For the last week or so, any video I want to watch- CNN or Youtube etc always buffers on me, although I have not changed any settings- would anyone know what I might be able to check to see/ or what a possible fix might be??

JD,

If you haven't changed anything on your end I'd start by testing your internet speed to see if it's slow for some reason.

You can do that here...

Didja run the test?  What'd it say?

For comparison, I was at 4300 kb/s here.

I can't believe how quickly y'all go to the bad place. Graphic! I guess this lends some credibility to the kinsey reports after all. Hahaha!

Yeah, you should call AOL and ask what you're supposed to expect, then tell em' what you have. I can't imagine you should be under 750ish, even if you have a discount deal.

I would think if you turned off the station you should still be able to watch video at that speed though.
