When i am on youtube, the videos keep starting and stopping. Why?

some videos play alittle longer before it freezes and then begins again....and keep doing throughout the video... sometimes the video wont play at all...please help...thanks

Assuming your internet connection is not the problem, go to Youtube and start to view a video. Pause the video, and then right-click on the video. Flash will then pop up a context menu, click Settings. On the first tab of the settings menu there is an option to de-select "Use hardware acceleration." If the box is not checked, check it, and if it is already checked, un-check it. Then try to play the video again. You may need to re-load the page afterward.
You'll want to update your outdated plug-ins, like Java. See:

  • Videos keep starting and stopping

    I cannot play videos from websites or YouTube, The video will
    play a few seconds, stop for a few seconds or minutes. I have
    uninstalled and reinstalled Flash.
    OS: Windows XP Professional
    Browser: IE 7 or Firefox 2.0.0.16
    Connection: High speed dial up
    Video Player: Flash 9
    Thank you.

    It is now working fine for me (knock on wood).
    There are a couple of things I tried, so I am not sure if it
    was a combination of these, or if something else changed. First, I
    uninstalled and reinstalled the player a number of times. (After
    doing this each time, however, it still kept starting and
    stopping.) Second, I right-clicked on the player during playback to
    pull up the settings, clicked the folder icon, and set the local
    storage to maximum. (After doing this, however, it still kept
    starting and stopping.) Third, I ran an updated version of
    Ad-Aware, which caught and deleted more tracking cookies than my
    virus checker was doing. The next day, everything on the Daily Show
    site seemed to work fine (still haven't checked other sites).
    So my suspicion is that some kind of tracking cookie
    installed itself and was causing the problems. I hope it
    helps.

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click: Remove All Website Data
    Now open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
    Not empty the Safari cache.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
    Now try a video. If that didn't help, click: Request HTML Player here > YouTube

  • Why do videos from the internet start and stop, Why do videos from the internet start and stop

    When I try to watch even a short video from the internet, it starts and stops....its annying....any ideas?

    Maybe the speed of your internet connection has some bearing on it?
    But you could give this a try - reset Safari and see if that helps at all.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    Hey, everytime I hit the enter key for example in Safari to enter a webpage, my itunes songs keep starting and stopping like I have the itunes window active... Does anyone know a solution for this? I tryed reinstalling and no luck...
    Thanks

    What are the system specs for your pc? It seems it's to slow to play iphone's 720p HD videos. QT 7.7.3 is the latest for windows but VLC Player will play these videos too.

    My MacBook Pro, does not start after pushing start button. The side bar starts and stops at half way.

    Hy myneck,
    Happy Holidays!  The resource below may provide some steps to try if your MacBook Pro won't start.
    Troubleshooting: My computer won't turn on - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS1367
    This article discusses what to do if your Mac won't turn on. To differentiate this from a display issue, be sure that when you press the power button:
    You don't hear a startup chime.
    You don't hear any fan or drive noise.
    There is no video on your built-in or external display
    If your computer has power but doesn't display any video, it may have one or more of these similar symptoms when you press the power button:
    You may hear a startup chime.
    You may hear fan or drive noise.
    You may see a light from the Sleep LED (if your Mac has one).
    Pressing the Caps Lock key on the keyboard causes it to light. 
    If any of these display-related conditions occur, see Troubleshooting: My computer has no video instead. Otherwise, continue with this article.
    If your computer won't turn on, try each of these steps:
    Verify you have a good connection from your Mac to the wall outlet by confirming the power cord and adapter if present are securely connected and plugged in. To check if the wall outlet is working, plug in a lamp or other electrical device.
    If the wall outlet is working and you continue to have no power try another power cord or adapter if available. If it works you may need a replacement cord or adapter. 
    Note: See Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters for further troubleshooting with MagSafe adapters.
    Disconnect all accessories that are plugged in to the computer, such as a printer, hub, or other mobile device.
    If your Mac supports user-installable memory, solid state drive, or hard drive, and you recently installed any of these, make sure they are installed correctly and are compatible with your computer. If possible, reinstall the original memory or drive into the computer to find out if the behavior persists afterwards.

    If you are still unable to start up your computer after trying each of these steps, visit an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for further diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).

    Just rented a movie on apple tv and it keeps starting and stopping every few minutes. have restarted in settings. have unplugged and replugged apple tv. any other suggestions?

    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Using the spacebar for starting and stopping a clip does not work

    Hi!
    The spacebar for starting and stopping the playing of a clip in the viewer of a sequence in the timeline has a live of its own. Without changing any setings, it sometimes works, but mostly not. Is there a seeting, I have not figured out yet? While in a session with Final Cut Express, it does not change its behavior. It starts with a working or not working spacebar. The same applies to the arrows to go back and for a frame, or back and for a clip. If the spacebar does not work, the arrows do not work either.

    thanks everybody. But my spacebar and arrow keys still do not work.
    As uggested, I deleted the preferences in the library (which is also what is suggested by fcpbook.com/Misc1.html)
    I am used working with Final Cut for some time now. And just got myself a new iMac and the program. So everything is quite new. I did not change any settings so far.
    The first 2 days everything was fine.
    Then, one day, the spacebar and the arrow key stopped working. Not in the middle of a session, but when I started the FCE new. Inbetween, it worked for some time. Now, the spacebar is gone again.
    It's just the function of playing the clip that does not work. In whatever window (timeline, viewer). The function of the spacebar to make a space (for example in te name of clip or in a text file) works fine.
    I would not mind the spacebar that much, but I miss the arrow keys to go from frame to frame, or from clip. It's strange.

  • Updated Droid Turbo this morning to Advanced Calling now the phone keeps freezing and restarting - why? - and how do i fix

    I have had my Droid Turbo for less than a month.  This morning I downloaded and installed the upgrade for Advanced Calling.  Now my phone has basically quit working.  The phone keeps freezing and/or automatically restarting.  Why and how do I fix it?

    Unless I am wrong, ErinW_VZW, the upgrade for advanced calling is NOT an app - it is a system update and therefore cannot be uninstalled.  Kinda scary that you do not know this. 
    LLATOO - My advice to you is to perform a factory reset. Look under System Settings -> Backup and Reset -> Factory Data Reset.  This will obviously delete your entire phone so backup what you need.

  • When I view videos on YouTube, the videos hang again and again. I fail to understand why? My net speed is super great. Need help. I hv an ipad2.

    When I watch videos on YouTube it hangs a lot. I hv ipad2 a newly bought one. My net speed is very good so fail to understand why.

    If the same when using Safari as with the YouTube app, YouTube's servers play a significant part in this.

  • Can Video widgets start and stop when entering and exiting the browser viewport?

    I like to use multiple autoplaying/looping video clips on a single page but I need to figure out how to make the videos start only when they enter the viewport on a browser and stop after they exit the viewport. Does anyone know a way to do this?

    I do not know if this can have an affect on it but the videos are being downloaded through multiple computers to a private server and being accessed through the mac. Please let me know what you think.

  • Hi - my Imac's hard drive keeps starting and stopping, when the imac is idle.  The Imac is working perfectly otherwise.  Any ideas?

    Hi my 4 year old Imac's hard drive keeps starting, whirring briefly, then stopping, when the machine is asleep.  Doesn't do it when in actual use.  The Imac is working perfectly otherwise.  Any ideas?

    Gracias mi amigo; there are a lot of options on the side bar in console, but I think I can see the issue - calendar agent - thousands of entries, all identical. Recently installed outlook 2011, so ? conflicting with Ical?

  • How can I control the video playback start and end time?

    I'd like to be able to start a video/audio playback at a particular point in time say 3 seconds from the starts of the video and play it for only 3 seconds. How can I set the unique start and end points rather than play the whole video. I'd also like to be able to do this using the SeriesElement so I can set the start and end play points for a series of stacked videos. How can this be achieved?

    Not sure I understand the question.  Can't you just append the param to the URL?  Like so:
    var url = new URL("http://video-research/video.f4v?start_time=500");
    If your question is more about playing a subclip of a progressive video, that's not something OSMF has support for.  You'd need to write a server script which checks for that parameter and then returns the relevant portion of the requested file.  (This is typically referred to as "pseudo-streaming", if you Google that term you'll find a wealth of info.)

  • Youtube loads videos without start or stop buttons.

    using Firefox I can open Youtube and other sites however the play and stop and other buttons are not included so I can never actually see anything. This just happened the last day or so. I've attempted to download several sites which did not solve the problem.

  • Why does streaming keeps starting and stopping?

    I got this product about two weeks ago, and I am still having a problem watching movies and traillers.  How do I stop the apple tv (2) from stopping during a video or movie when it does not happen in my old laptop?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check your internet connection speed using speedtest.net
    It's recommended that you have a 6 Mbps connection for HD from iTunes and 2.5 Mbps for SD from iTunes. Netflix will vary it's quality to suit the speed of your connection, but if it's too slow it may well stop and start.
