That's the difference between Youtube (and, I'd expect other streamed video to be as slow, like previews at Apple's QT site.) For youtube the solution is simple: either figure out why your network is slow, or use something like CosmoPod to download the Youtube videos to your computer where they'll play back much better. This is my solution; we've got the basic 1.5 megabit internet connection at home, youtube vids are horrible on it, but downloaded they play just fine. There are similar plug-ins for other browsers, CosmoPod is specifically for safari <http://www.cocoamug.com/> and is well worth the $15 or so it costs (it's priced in euros, today it's $13.50) -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
