Having a decent camera or capture device is a must. Webcams and integrated cameras never worked well for me, i tend to use my ipod for recording & uploading and works fine. I don't think ill ever move into the 1080p/720p game cause 480 and 240 is just easier to stream for everyone. But solid framerate is a must.
I don't think this video has the correct title, it should be called 'Youtube has a some videos that have very few frames per second and it pisses me off'
Just imagine it as a great stop-motion film. I have problems with videos skipping and not loading all of the way, but even when it is sporadic it is aggravating. I hope you can figure it out man. Cheers!
To be honest Mark, I found the video that you are having trouble with and I watched it on my blackberry with no "jerks" at all. Sorry brother all ok here. Usually I'm the one with the issues..lol.
I never thought i'd see Onemansmoke jerking on youtube... Sorry to hear of this problem.. Sometimes i have problems with it loading up.. it plays for a few seconds then just stops - it's a pain..
Just wanted to put in my $.02 on the topic. I've been watching a ton of vids over the last week and I have not encountered this problem at all. I've used two different laptops on two different wi-fi connections and they've all been smooth from the start. A mystery to be sure...
Dude...I guess as a graphics man you would have thought of this, but could it be some issue or conflict with your Flashplayer installation? I recently had to update it to see any videos at all!
I only happened to me when I opened a Youtube video and didn't watch it right away, instead watching other Youtube videos in other windows. Then when I came back to watch the first video it was doing "the jerk". I dumped my cache and closed all my Youtube windows and then opened up a new one and everything was ok again. Can't say if that really fixed it or not, I'm not very computer literate. Hope this helps though Mark, good luck to you!
Sometimes I clear my cache and reset my browser and that help but i have a first gen eeepc so it's expected. Running a max 900mhz but with 2gb or ram...lol
Thanks for the awesome video, I have noticed here in Florida between the times of 6-9 PM EST that all the videos here load extremely slow. I am talking like a 10 min wait for one video to load sometimes IF it loads all the way in the first place. And I have the fastest connection available in my area. But any time out side that time frame it work almost flawlessly. I always just thought the servers were bogged down with peak traffic between toughs times or something possibly.I have no solution
May have to. I have been having this problem on so many videos. I quit and come back and it works fine. It has to be on the Youtube side. Like Mark says, I'll let the video stream out and it still lags.
I had the same exact problem with my old computer but since I picked up my new laptop it hasn't been problem. I would definitely check your flash player. The only problem that I have run into is for some reason PipeFriend's videos seem to play faster than they can load. Idk. Good luck.
Sorry to hear about your tech woes, bro. I'm speaking off the cuff here, but could be be your flash player? I think YT vids are all flash coded, so you might check to see if you have the latest version of adobe flash.
I've had similar problems for about the last month, just started doing it for some reason. I also have the sound seriously warped. When I reboot my PC it's works fine, but for what I can make out it's not my PC. All browsers seem to be affected and it only appears to be YouTube. Who knows?? Ferrick
Sorry Mark your videos are not playing. I have had my issues in the past with YT if you remember I had a 10 minute rant on all the bugs last year. I have not seen the JERK thing but at times the videos load very slowly and later on they load fine. What browser do you use? I had issues in the recent past with videos loading And I use an IMAC 27" with 8gb DDR3 memory I7 cpu HD video card it's loaded! I use cable 20.0 MB down loads and yes YT fails. Seems to me they need a hardware up grade.
i've never had an issue like this...i get slow buffers when trying to view HD vids, but thats it...sorry you're having this trouble..maybe you are viewing at a time of high traffic??
I have the same problem on the old PC desktop but fine on my Mac powerbook.
My Rant against YT
My 1st YT channel N7COF I shut down because of vote bots & hate mail. My 2nd YT channel SRPenzance got hacked after I linked my sites. Finally got back in & closed account. "For techies a site I'm a Admin on got hit with a worm that went after saved passwords."

Mark, download a different flash player or update your video card. This should alleviate the issue and hope this helps.

Yeah, I have been having this problem myself on many different systems. It is the Youtube server issues, in my opinion.
