Pleased get back to me on this test. Thanks I am trying to compare the performance of online video sharing platforms. I got some feedback from users in the South that the same video performs differently depending on the platform wherefrom it streams . Please note that I uploaded the same source file on the two platforms. I would be grateful if you could watch one or more of the short videos below and get back to me with your comments and an indication of your location.
