Dunno if this is in the right place?
I am using firefox on my laptop and youtube videos are very patchy, and stsrt and stop randomly. Any ideas? I have disabled hardware acceleration i think its called.

 

Watch the bar that shows it loading, is it loading quickly but not playing properly, or is it slow to load?

Have you tried another browser?

 

i get this too, the sound carries on fine, the video itself seems to stutter a lot
letting it play till the end and starting it again stops the problem, but i've got no issues with downloading it as the little bar shoots along very rapidly

 

Just tried chrome and it works fine, does firefox have a problem with windows 7?

 

I tell a lie, started using chrome as my browser, had snakebook open, then pf, tried to watch a rally vid linked on here, and same problem!

 

Do you have the latest version of Firefox? Never had any issues with FF on anything.

If you haven't already, download Adblock from the addons website, removes any adverts and loads Youtube videos without the irritating adverts at the start.

 

Will try that, cheers.

 

Youtube doesn't work on my FireFox running Windows 7. It loads, plays about 3 seconds, then goes back the beginning, plays about 1 second, goes back to the beginning, then says error. Does it on every single video. Can't see to work out what the problem is.

 

It's more likely to be a bandwidth issue, rather than the browser!
