Question submitted by james on Wednesday, July 9, 2020 at 05:29:18 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Questions: cant seem to get nbc.com tv shows or sci-fi.com shows to play correctly there choppy and impossible to watch ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The biggest bottlenecks to streaming video are Memory (RAM), Bandwidth (Internet Speed) and Processor Speed. Most streaming video gives you choices for the bandwidth. Try a smaller bandwidth or smaller image to let the video look smoother or get a faster internet provider. You can add more memory (RAM) to your computer to let it process bigger chunks of data. Processor speed can only be improved by a faster computer. Also, close any other running programs and check for spyware (download.com has a program called spybot-search and destroy that does a good job) before you run the streaming video. Make sure you're virus protection is working and up to date. Try a different browser (Firefox or Safari are now available for windows users instead of Internet Explorer) If it's jerky you can help it by freeing up your processor.
