The videos are loading a bit slow

[Luke]

From I think yesterday, videos have been loading pretty slow.

I thought it may be a problem on my end so I rebooted my connection and computer multiple times, ran TuneUp 2008 registry cleaner and did a virus scan with BitDefender. Everything seems to be in order. I even used some tweaks to try to make it load a bit faster.

I'm not having this problem on any other sites so it could be a server problem.

hmmm Faint we'll look into this, could be a hotlink problem we'll check our bandwidth

[Luke]

I'm still having the problem with the slow video streaming. Any news?

[Nerka]

they've loaded fine for me there was an issue for about a week that i wanted to kill people but other than that its been good for me

[Chelle]

It's been fine for me also, hope it gets sorted whatever the problem is Faint

[Mike]

Faint it may be a country issue or something, cause everything checks out perfect on our end and the server end.

I'll keep looking into it for you I promise

Things have been loading smoothly for me. It may be my ISP switch. I went from EUnet to VeratNet. So far all VeratNet has been giving me is trouble. At first I had massive lag when gaming online, but the videos loaded fast and download speeds were nice, but then videos started loading slow. They should fix their damn services or I'm going back to EUnet.

I have finally fixed the slow video loading problem. Turns out it was my desktop resolution. After lowering it by a bit the videos load perfectly. But now I have another problem. This time it's not that the video loading is slow, but the videos take time to actually appear. On the homepage everything loads except the videos, and when I select a video it takes time for it to appear. So it's not slow streaming, it's the videos taking time to appear. I have tried cleaning my cookies and cache, I am even on IE7 to see if it works, which it doesn't.

Here's a screenshot:

Faint, is this the first time this has happened to you? Is it happening all the time?

How long did it take to populate your screen?

let me know I want to diagnose this

thanks,

This problem just came out of nowhere today. It takes about 10-15 seconds for the videos to appear. I think it has happened before, but I'm not 100% sure. It could be a 1 day thing though.
