The last few weeks, I've had a poor user experience with YouTube -- it
doesn't buffer ahead well, so the videos will play for a bit, pause for
a bit, play for a bit, pause for a bit, and sometimes not resume for
minutes at a time.

I have plenty of bandwidth: speed test says 58 Mbps download, 39 Mbps
upload <http://www.speedtest.net/result/2644293409.png>.

My computer isn't stressed, according to Windows Task Manager --
gigabytes of free RAM, only a few percent of CPU in use, no other
downloads in progress (e.g., Windows Update). AV checks (entire
computer, not just key areas) come up clean.

This is a consistent pattern morning, noon, and night. It also affects
Internet Exploiter 10, FWIW.

It sometimes helps briefly to clear my browser cache and "all sites" at
Adobe's Settings Manager. Then the issue returns, often within minutes.

My principal question here is, is it just me, or is there an issue with
YouTube? I seem to be fine with hulu.com.

I understand this is probably OT for this forum, but I need a good sample.

Thanks.

I don't remember how long ago it started, but I used to immediately pause all YouTube videos and let them load, but that no longer works. i have the same troubles you describe, or, a video plays fine for a few minutes and then just flat-out stops, and it is NOT loading ahead.

I pretty much use the DownLoadHelper extension for everything there now.
Streaming is just too aggravating.
