Re: [Cable] Youtube lags at night still, upgrade cache servers? Just a quick observation. I was watching a video just now and it kept buffering at 1080p. I ran a speedtest and it showed 20Mbps down, though 20 is not the full 28 I usually get, it should be enough to stream. So I decided to try loading the video in a different browser and:
My browser is Firefox and I have quite a bit of plugins loaded in it. I started playing the video in Chrome in a window right next to it and it loaded perfectly. Also tried IE and it loaded fine there too.
I then tested firefox with no plugins and it loaded fine, but what makes this completely inconclusive is that I restarted firefox again to load the plugins and the video loaded ok.
Just something I wanted to throw this out there to see if everyone that is experiencing this problem is also using Firefox with lots of add-ons. |

| I honestly think it's an issue with Flash. That and Google's bandwidth conservation for YouTube has really put a damper on things. |

I thought YT was all HTML5 now, that's why Google dropped Flash from Android? |
