Video loads slowly and is extremely glitchy; photos also glitchy

Hello,
I've seen some reports of glitchy displays on videos and images in FF lately, but no posts so far that also include EXTREMELY slow performance. Mine not only shows a glitchy, green, or "spliced" image on YouTube and DailyMotion, but also slows to the point of stopping pretty much every time. I just successfully reinstalled FF via the ftp site a few hours ago, and have already tried disabling all add-ons, which didn't help at all. I'm trying to attach several screenshots, but the real issue here is that it's got all of these glitchy issues PLUS is slow and simply stops loading videos very soon after loading the page. Can someone tell me how to add screenshots? I don't see anything resembling an "attach" button on this form's page, but have about 4 of them I could share.

Currently you have to reply to yourself to attach screen shots.
If you haven't already, try disabling Firefox's use of hardware acceleration for graphics. This works around graphics card driver incompatibilities.
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
This takes effect after you exit and restart Firefox.

Videos loading slowly and often only partially

Sorry if this has already been adressed somewhere, I could not find an answer to my problem.
For the last week all videos I've been attempting to stream have been loading very slowly or only partially (it's taking me at least 4 times the norm to load)
I'm running OS 10.5.8 and have been having this trouble with both firefox and chrome.
About a month and a half ago I was having errors with the message "Adobe Flash Player was blocked because it is out of date" so I used this fix (https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/_CnkF0tj6xk/yynqSTnTNnUJ) and it's been working great (but now I'm wondering if it's involved in my problem)
I've tried -
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin before reintsaling.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
It was not a sucess.
My internet speeds are good, everything else is loading fine..

Since there may not be too many people in this forum that may still be using the old operating system, I will ask the hosts to have your post moved to the Leopard (10.5.8) forum.

Videos Loading Slowly!

Hi,
I was viewing quicktime videos on a website today and all of sudden everything started loading slowly. I immediately went to disk utilities and ran it. Still the videos ran slowly. I even did Diskwarrior and shut down/restarted my computer and still they are loading at a very slow rate. Is there something else I can do? Why are the videos loading slowly? I've checked my internet speed on websites like msnbc.com and my business website which has flash videos and they worked fine. I also had someone send me another quicktime video which although it didn't load promptly was playing in less than 7 seconds.

Post a link/URL of the slow loading video website.

The second issue is that my sleep button does not respond to sleep right away, I have to press it three or four different times after I have logged out of my desktop to make it go to sleep. The final problem is dealing with my buttons and laptop locking up, when I started an application called runescape after it load to the log in screen and after I came back to log into the game it decide to lock up/ froze on me and durning that time my buttons on my dashboard was not responding, so I decide to command q to quit the application and after that buttons were not reponding to it and I decide to do common and control c to see if it would work and it did and after that everything has been working fine except for the files are loading slowly.

It's likely that the new drive isn't working, or it wasn't installed correctly, or you had some other hardware fault rather than a bad drive.

My MacBook Pro gets really hot when I open a video file of any kind and the video starts lagging and the image fades away, also with anything that starts the fan. Is extremely hot on the left upper corner. Is there something I can do about it?

YouTube Videos Loading Slowly

Hi. I've been having a lot of problems with YouTube lately. When I first got my computer, it didn't have any problems at all. but within a month, it takes like 10 minutes to load a minute long video.
I tried repair disk permissions in the disk utility, tried loading videos in safari and firefox, tried clearing out my hd with the Clean My Mac program, etc. I'm not sure what else I can try.
I have the new 27" iMac 4850-512mb 2.8ghz quad-core intel core i7, and I'm running Snow Leopard. I don't know a lot about hardware so I don't know if that is the information needed to help or any thing but if you need anymore information please let me know. =]

Try using ClickToFlash. That might help streaming speeds.
Also, make sure that you're not playing 720p video. You'll have a hard time streaming that through your internet connection.

Embeded video loads slowly

So here's the scenario. I have an iPhone 4S on AT&T running iOS 7.0.3. Currently, it takes me about an hour to watch a 7 minute video embeded on a website because the video buffers/loads so slowly. This was not an issue prior to upgrading to iOS 7 that I can think of. I have full signal, as the closest tower is literally 50 yards away. I have tried to use Safarri and Chrome with the same results. Video on the YouTube app seems to work fine, it will do some prebuffering and then continue to load as I watch. Embeded video on the other hand, just sits there.
Any solutions/thoughts?

Videos load slowly or not at all with Flash 10!

Well here we go. I'm working on IE 8 128-bit for Windows XP SP3 32-bit. Flash Player 10.1.102.64.
Two days ago I noticed that video playback on sites like Youtube, Veoh, Magavideo etc the load time was real choppy. A video say two or three minuted longs would take more than 3 min, to buffer and then the video would start, then buffer somemore. Start , stop, repeat. For longer videos the flash player wouldn't buffer at all. Now I just give up on watching videos until this problem is solved. I tried one suggestion that said on the adobe hardware settings disable hardware acceleration. Did that, but didn't fix the problem. I've tried unistalling and reinstalling FP 10.1.102.64 once, but that didn't work.
In my "Currently Loaded Add ons" section Shockwave Flash Object is enabled. Version 10.1.102.64 that is.
The files in my system32/Macromed/Flash/ folder are as followed
A folder with 'Flash Player Trust' it contains a filed name rpconverter.cfg
Flash10l.ocx
a text document with FlashInstall
flashplayer.xpt
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll

I just want to watch videos online again. I need help.
I have Avast anti-virus
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
Smart Defrag
Any help anybody.

Step by step what should my Java script setting be? I don't think any quicktime addons are conflicting with it. The First time I had this problem, I had to simply had to turn off the SmartFilter and all my videos buffered smoothly through. I don't know whats wrong THIS time.
When trying to watch a veoh video on this website a error message is found of the page. I click on the little yellow triangle in the corner.

How to create "transition" while FLV Videos load before and during "chaining" or "looping"

The Status:
OK, I now have Action Script 3 that will work for chaining FLV videos... or Looping an FLV video.
But when one video ends there is a short pause before the next one loads and starts... the progress bar for the Flash Player displays diagional green lines... and it is simply not a smooth transistion.
This happens when chaining or when looping.
And, even though I'm doing a progressive download... where the video starts very quickly... and plays while it downloads... there is a short delay at the start. That is not as noticable as the break between videos or when looping back to replay the same video.
The Question:
Is there a way to create a visual transistion... say a rotating object... or something to keep the motion/action going during that short interval?
I've seen something like this before... like two (broken line) circles rotating in opposit directions... or something.
It show the "busy" status or whatever I guess.
Thanks for any help.

That depends on how you're loading your videos. Assuming you're using a loader object, you would add/show and remove/hide this
animation while you're waiting for the load of the video to complete. If you're loading the file(s) directly into a FLVPlayback object then you'll want to do this:
import lash.events.VideoEvent;
FLVPlaybackObject.addEventListener(VideoEvent.bufferingStateEntered, showBufferState);
FLVPlaybackObject.addEventListener(VideoEvent.playingStateEntered, clearBufferAnimation);
function showBufferState(e:VideoEvent):void
//Do your busy animation here
function clearBufferAnimation(e:VideoEvent):void
//Hide/stop your busy animation here
However, I may be all wrong about your methods. Let me know if this works or if you need anymore help. Thanks,
-Jesse

Youtube videos load slowly

hello I have a 13inch macbook pro running 10.8 and youtube videos buffer very slowly. I have an 18mb Internet connection and netflix, vimeo, and all other downloads happen at that speed. I have tried changeimg my dns server multiple times but still no luck. I have also uninstalled flash and reinstalled flash. It has been doing this for 3 or 4 months. Any suggestions?

Same here. My iPad connects fine with any WiFi I use it on and speed is pretty good. But the Youtube app seems to either have some issues or just not take full advantage of the available speed. I often have videos stall.
The Netflix app work flawless, never had any slow connection issues. The Youtube app in general could use a makeover. It still uses the old rating system that isn't even supported by Youtube any more. It also doesn't show all my subscriptions.

How can i pull a frame in a video from iphoto and convert to a photo

I have many videos from my iPhone, imported into iPhoto, and i would like to create desktop images (jpg's) from some of them. Is there a way to do this using my native mac apps? (iWork, iLife, Quicktime 7 Pro, Aperture) I am running 10.8.3, all iLife and iWork, Aperture, all latest updates and versions. I am running on a 2009 iMac 3.06 Dual Core, 12 gigs Ram. I have a 3 TB back up, Time machine, as well as iCloud. The old way of pulling from quicktime pro does not seem to work in iPhoto exports as MOV, so I'm looking for any help please! Thank you in advance!

Use iMovie to do this.

I have wi fi and recently Firefox downloads videos very slowly and sometimes stops download becuase it can not read files

The only time I have experienced the slow down load was when we exceeded our bandwidth. This problem is different because at times it downloads at around 4oo kb's but then it will seem to hang and will slow down to 40 to 60 kb's. If I pause it then sometimes it begins at the 400 range but then it returns to the lower 60's. Other times it brings up a message that says Firefox was unable to save this file and stops. If I retry it makes no difference.

HAVE SAME PROBLEM WITH FIREFOX, ALSO WITH IE-8. HAVE TALKED TO TECH AT IE-8 SAYS MY SIDE FINE. HAVE FOR 2 WEEKS TO DOWNLOAD FROM MOVIEPRO.NET. AND MY TIME RAN OUT TO DOWNLOAD MOVIES.
THERE NEEDS TO BE A SITE BBB. AT THE TOP OF EVERY SEARCH WINDOW. OR A NUMBER CODE FROM BROWSERS. THAT WILL TELL US A NUMBER, FOR WHAT KIND OF PROBLEMS PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THE SITE YOU ARE GOING TO.
I HAVE WROTE TO MOVIEPRO.NET 12 PLUS TIMES AND THEY WILL NOT WRITE BACK.
SO IS IT MOVIEPRO.NET OR FIREFOX. OR IE-8
HAY IF YOU PAY US $140.00 WE WILL TELL YOU HOW TO UNCHECK 2 BOXES AND HAVE A NICE DAY..
AND WHEN YOUR COMPUTER REBOOTS, ALL THAT IS HISTORY

Firefox loads slowly and sometimes will freeze up. Why?

I double click on FireFox icon and wait and wait. Most times it eventually opens but sometimes it freezes up. I then go into Windows Task Manager and hit end process. When I restart, it seems to load quickly. I am running Bit Defender Internet Security 2010 version 13.0.21.

Issues with Edge loading slowly and Not filling its space until loaded

I am in the last stages of wrapping up a new website and have a nice Edge Animation slated for the top of the home page. The content, which includes a poster is published. However, when the page loads there is a lag before the animation fills its designated spot.
I tried using a preloader but then the entire content of the animation appeared behind the other content - making matters much worse.
In order to reserve a spot I tried creating another div with a background image as a placeholder, but because this content is responsive horizontally and vertically the placeholder locks the content into a predefined space and is not properly responsive.
I optimized the content to cut down on load time (not sure why Edge doesn't do the optimizing), but it is still not enough to resolve this issue. I would really appreciate some insights.
Thanks.

I think it is fairly safe to say that I have been completely ignored on this one.
