I agree Richard.

This video is too high res.

Someone has to comment on these silverlight players because this waiting for them to download when you hit the page sux.

I have t0 wait at least 45 seconds and freezes the browser whilst this is happening.

I cannot believe that it works this way in this day an age of the web.

Got to find another way guys, why can't it download asynchronously.

Charles,

No, I am not an expert at streaming video.

All I know is I had no problems streaming video from channel 9 without pausing until recently.

The videos that have problems were videos that were really big.

My connection is fine as I have a download manager that I can see the download speed and it is as normal.

Something has changed to those videos that affects the ability of my bandwidth to avoid pausing.

I have recently been complaining about the size of videos posted and not being able to stream them with a 1.5mbps connection with it being paused.

It seems to be the vidoes Charles posts.

This video runs great so why can't all videos be posted using this bit rate the quality is great.

Malcolm

Must be Charles laziness or secretly owns an ISP.

The size of these videos is F____G pathetic!

I am a frequent visitor to Channel 9 over last year.

I have been noticing recently that the size of the videos posted have increased to the point where I cannot stream the video and watch it without the video stopping to catch up.

I have a 1.5mbps connection which is the maximum bandwidth that my ISP supports without a change to different technology. My ISP is the biggest in my country and this probably what 80% of users have.

I do not see the reason why the videos posted should have increased as previously every was fine.

Are you trying to alienate your existng user of channel 9 and people with similar bandwidth to mine. I am not going to upgrade my bandwidth which I already pay to much for just to watch your videos.

The quality of previous videos has been fine also and this should ot be a reason for increased size.

I have read many other posts with the issue as me here.

This must mean that channel 9 doesn't care if it loses any users of channel 9 due to this issue and if thats the case then fine you have lost me.

As I mention I have above average bandwidth in my country and this should be enough to watch streaming video without pauses.
