Summary:

Video Buffer (help smooth playback over wireless network)

Description:

For those of us who serve content to thier HTPCs, I would like to suggest a video buffer option in MediaPortal. I have a wireless G connection to my media but depending on the size/quality of a video, it has a tendancy to "hiccup" every now and then. It's not a bad stutter, but its is noticable/distracting.

If MediaPortal could buffer the video it is playing it would eliminate this problem I believe... I understand if you use an external player this wouldnt help but I like the internal one just fine

And thanks again for a great program!
