Re: Don't like YouTube

Stuttering on YouTube is not normal. I'd blame your ISP for that. But one thing you can do to even it out is to press pause just after you start, and let it buffer for a while before resuming play. (You can even buffer the whole thing if necessary.)

The video quality is variable, and many clips are very well worth watching.
If it's my ISP why is it that I can stream very well from other sites? I tried buffering, it doesn't help.
Even if they have clips that are worth watching, what I have seen are grainy, crud lighting, and usually shaky cam clips.
Some of my friends have put video on YT, and trying to watch them has been a lesson in frustration and embarrasment.

Re: Don't like YouTube

Well, I can only tell you that I don't have any such problem. And if all you're seeing is "shaky cam clips", then you're looking at the wrong stuff. That doesn't fit my YouTube experience, either.
