Choppy Streaming Video

I noticed that lately streaming videos have been kind of choppy until completely loaded. Here's an example:

After the video bar loads completely the video plays fine but as it auto-plays before the bar is completely loaded it's pretty choppy. Have you guys been experiencing this? I'm not completely sure but I don't think it used to be like this..

Thanks

 

Works fine for me. Using Firefox 2, the higher res video(think it was 640~), and 10.5.5

What browser are you using? Have you updated flash to the latest version? Restarted the laptop in a while?

Could also be your internet connection. If its slow/being used if you only load a certain amount, and play all of it, itll pause until you load some more. Depending on the player, it will do something similiar to that. Could just be slow internet?

 

Works fine for me in Safari.

 

I use to get choppy video on my old computer if there was a lot of applications open or something using the internet.

 

I'm wondering if maybe it's the flash player. Quicktime videos stream fine.. is there a way to reinstall it?

 

Try getting flash 10 here

Not sure if you can reinstall it though, but you can atleast upgrade?

 

Upgraded to flash 10.. still same problem while movie loads. After it loads it plays okay. I don't have this problem in quicktime..
