[QUOTE="el Filou, post: 640606, member: 78516"] What do you mean by "delay" ? If you have that problem on all or most of the sites that means it's coming from your connection. Try to increment the initial buffer % offbyone was refering to (it's under "playback buffer" in the options screen) until the pauses go away. If you have that problem only with some sites/some videos, that means the problem is on the server side (I sometimes encounter that problem even with YouTube: some rare videos simply can't be watched in realtime as they're pausing every 5 seconds to rebuffer, must be a server load-balancing issue on their side), and that means you would have to set an incredibly high initial buffer % in order to eliminate pauses, and that would negatively impact other sites that are working OK and you would wait an eternity each time you want to watch something. I think the best to do in that case is to download the video in the background and watch it later when it's finished. You can still watch something else in the meantime. [/QUOTE]
