Run some traceroutes to the destination, to make sure there isn't a
problem between you.
This is not happening when using the G4 MDD, G5 Dual 2.7 or MacBook
Pro on the same network.
Which still does not preclude a network issue ON THAT MAC. So again,
run some traceroutes.
Ok. Run Activity Monitor and watch the paging and i/o rates.
I have no idea what this is. If I have to be on iChat to check this
it's hard to get anyone to stay up long enough.:-)
Launch Activity Monitor.
View the System Memory pane. Observe the page in/out numbers. If
they change a lot while you're doing video then you have a paging
problem.
View the Disk Activity pane. Observe the data written/sec. If it's
high while you're doing video then you're caching to disk like crazy.

I may not be correctly adding the "&fmt=5" to the url. can you
explain how to do that. when I start the YouTube I add the code to
the end of the url but I get no change on the Cube or my TiBooks.
Take the YouTube url, add "&fmt=5" and refresh the browser page.
eg:
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMltvlqEM54>
vs
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMltvlqEM54&fmt=5>
Again - try Yahoo! Messenger's video. I suggest this because if it
works ok then the problem is not your basic network connectivity
etc.
I don't know how to use Yahoo that's why I have iChat and Skype It's
for the layamn.
Have you bothered to try? There are Help Files available. It's quite simple.
