Forums - General - HELP: Why are videos horribly slow for me?

EDIT: Actually, it is every video service that is really slow, and that is odd because that only happens on my PC.

Can anyone help me/ know why?



Around the Network

I'll tell you what's slow: This damn website. Took four hours for this page to load!



was the site down? I tried to go on earlier but couldn't...



Loading videos sometimes takes a while, the site itself loads fine for me though.



 

Everything loads fine but since the update i have noticed that when i type comments its major slow (kinda like a FPS drop from 30 to 5 in a video game, except for typing)



Around the Network

yeah it is terribly slow it takes a good 2 minutes just to load a 5 minute video and i tested my internet speed and its says 24 MB download speed and 12 MB upload so i shouldn't have to wait a few minutes for it to load. This is why im waiting for my Xbox to get YouTube.



Bump-ish.
Actually, I noticed every video (Megavideo, DailyMotion, Youtube, VideoWeed) run horribly.



Perhaps your browser?

I don't know, it's the same on Firefox or Chrome.

However, videos load fast from my iTouch, so I'm 100% sure it is something odd in my PC.

Same here with Firefox. It just stuttered both on Youtube and here. Heard sounds okay but bad video. It got better after a I restarted my comp though.
