Hi All,
I have trouble streaming video via my wireless LAN to my MacBook. The
videos are stored on my windows PC running Vista and streamed over an
802.11G connection. The video will typically play for about 3-5
minutes and then pause for 30-45 seconds. If I play them via the
wired LAN they play fine. The files are usually about 350Mb are DivX
or Xvid and are TV shows I have...errm....recorded to my windows PC
using my TV to Hard drive broadband internet convertor :o/
I had assumed that this was due to the bandwidth of the wireless not
being good enough to view the files that I am trying to view (without
the constant rebuffering), however one of my mates came over the
other day and he reckons that he has no problems viewing similar
files over his wireless LAN. Oh and my wireless signal strength is
perfect and no one else is using the wireless while I am attempting
this.
Does anyone know if this would be caused by the wireless connection
or if there is something amiss with my setup? I couldn't find
anywhere in the quicktime config to change bandwidth settings or
similar.
Cheers,
Adam.
