    How come when I play a video on my computer sometimes it will stop and start back up again? Not the sound just the video and I don't mean the video starts back up from the beginning. When I move the mouse around the internet the video will play just fine also if I put another window over the internet it plays just fine. (Such as you tube of a video someone has posted in S2) It's just when the video is the main window it starts and stops sometimes? I don't download on my HP laptop so I highly doubt I have used to much space. It has been going on for a couple of days now.
    Thanks.

    I doubt that I'm the computer-geekiest here but isn't that a problem that comes from lack of ram for a particularly demanding video?

    I don't know why I wouldn't have enough ram? The video plays fine if I'm moving my mouse around the internet part.

    It's probably the mosquito net interfering with the banana hammock

    It's probably internet bandwidth. To show a hire resolution picture bigger, it takes more bandwidth.

    You need to deflate the old air out of your laptop and pump in some fresh air.

    Youtube Center is a browser extension that, IMO, vastly improves Youtube. It makes it more like it used to be, the video loads ONCE right when you start it. There's no re-buffering when skipping back or ahead. Much smoother.

    Also, fuck Youtube, they're going to be replaced eventually because they keep making their service worse.
