Video keeps buffering #102

Open FreeBornAngel opened 6 months ago

FreeBornAngel commented 6 months ago

I don't know if this is a yewtube issue or what, but it started more than a few days ago that the videos are unwatchable due to buffering. In the first few days I could switch instances and the videos played just fine. But, now a week or ten days after it started it has extended to all instances I have checked.

Is utub doing this, or what? Can it be fixed?

I'm using brave on a linux box, if that matters.

using dash or not?

Yes.

unixfox commented 6 months ago

Hum no you aren't using DASH.

For using dash you need "Preferred video quality:" set to DASH

FreeBornAngel commented 6 months ago

Ah, the line above. Should I turn that on?

unixfox commented 6 months ago

please give the URLs where it's buffering. I can't replicate the issue on either DASH or non DASH.

Both of these are buffing for me.

unixfox commented 6 months ago

Ok, I can replicate the issue on all videos if you turn on "proxy" in the preferences.

I think something is wrong, I took a quick glance at it and I couldn't find what's going on.

Meanwhile using DASH solves it if you want a better experience.

Ok, thank you.

I'm still getting buffered.

unixfox commented 6 months ago

Not possible, it loads the video pretty quickly for me. Make sure to enable javascript though as DASH needs javascript.

Ok, thank you.
