You Tube with Safari
« on: February 14, 2009, 11:38:09 AM »
iMac G5 17" PPC 1.8 GHz OS 10.4.11
Safari 3.2.1

Why is it that some, not all, You Tube videos do not play well with Safari?
With Safari some videos start, play for one second, stop and load another second of play, and so on.
The same videos play without a hitch with Firefox 3.0.6.

Usually because of too slow downloading speeds. Or your computer is doing too many tasks on the interweb at the same time. But if it's only Safari, you might want to be sure its caches are not too full. Safari-->Clear cache.

Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system

As usual xABD, again you were right! Clearing the cache fixed the problem.

Tell me, how does it feel to always be right, well let's say most of the time?

Thanks.
