_Ray Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Has anybody other than me noticed how YT's bandwidth has gone to crap? I have to watch everything in 360p now (and it still stops to load every few seconds!) because their server isn't capable of getting more than 80K/sec to me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas. Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Yes, we know. This is about the 10th "i h8 utube" topic I have encountered on here. Viewing videos are fine for me by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't get over 80 KB/s of bandwidth with them. My Internet is capable of up to 2.0MB/s burst and 1.2MB/s sustained download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Youtube has sucked for a long time. Edited January 31, 2010 by Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Really? Raybob, I think its just your computer. Because before they came up with the 360p my computer was slower than a turtles orgasm. I mean it would stop and keep going for about a coupla minutes. Well the computer I use has the worst performance, and still plays HD smoothly. Try waiting a few days without going on YouTube, and make sure your computer is plugged into the router. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX22B1998 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 hmm it hasnt seemed much different to me. although some videos take a while to load, since my net is like 7mbps down it usually loads faster than it plays. @Husky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickS Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Yeah, Youtube's been suckish lately, stupid videos take ages to load. I wish they would do something about it :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ray Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Well, it seems to have gotten better now, I can stream 1080p just fine on 9/10 videos. Before it wouldn't even play 360p without glitches. And on a side note of internet speed, I'm very happy because my ISP just increased my upload speed from 384 Kb/s to 1Mb/s for free.
