Videos are choppy and don’t play continuously in Youtube

Asked By Barbara Rothermal 0 points N/A Posted on - 06/29/2014

I've been trying to play videos on YouTube using Mozilla Firefox, but the videos appeared to be choppy or it didn't play continuously. It stopped and started while I was watching the video. I have a high speed internet connection and I have not encountered problems like this with YouTube in the past. Please help me out.

Downloading the latest version of Flash player will help a little, but the most common cause of poor performance is excessive traffic. Not something under your control. Try pausing the video and let it "buffer," i.e. Download a little of the video to your local temp files first. Then press play and you should have a smoother experience.
