Windows Media Player

When I try run a video such as the one in the thread below"How Not To Tow" it takes forever to load and then alternately runs and stops, runs and stops very slow. Any ideas? bg

Click pause, you should see an indicator below of how much of the clip has been downloaded (it's along with the tracking bar that shows how far into the clip you are). Once the indicator gets close to the end, then start playback, otherwise you will continue to run up against the buffer and get results as you describe.

If you are using dial-up, forget it.

CChase, I see the buffer starts over every time I hit play, Klenger, it's on the phone line, takes forever and two days to download. Thanks to all three. bg
