more buffering?
I've noticed that videos sometimes don't load as fast as they used to, and sometimes shift-F5 takes care of it.
Haven't noticed a loading problem on my end... but man I'm starting to get real tired of all the damn advertisment intros.
It's like i'm involuntarily trained to hit that skip link as soon as it pops up.
Youtube is definitely slower and less friendly than it was a year ago, but it's Spotify that's gradually getting worse for me - slowing to a crawl and taking too long to open, even though all other programs are fine.
Using Firefox with Adblock Plus so don't see the ads, but damn, Youtube is terrible lately with the hanging and stopping mid-vid.
I'll have to try that shift-F5 maneuver.
You say Mega Ultra Deluxe Special Limited Edition Extended Autographed 5-LP, 3-CD, 4-DVD, 2-BlueRay, 4-Cassette, five 8-Track, MP4 Download plus Demos, Outtakes, Booklet, T-Shirt and Guitar Pick Gold-Leafed Box Set Version like it's a bad thing...
Has anyone had this issue with YouTube recently? Certain videos appear to me as only multicolored lines across the screen, like this? It's been happening for a few weeks now, only with certain videos - enough that it's become a real nuisance! This is in Chrome, so under the Alphabet/Google umbrella.:

The only thing I've noticed is the number of Dislikes (down votes) doesn't show anymore. It's not a huge deal, but a step back, imo.

Is it device or browser-specific? When I had stuff like that going on with a prior laptop, the video card built in to the motherboard was crapping out, and it was still under support, so they replaced it. Apologies for using tech jargon like "crapping out" but sometimes I forget how to put things in layman's terms.

Brian Dennehy: "I'm now 80 and I'm just another actor and that's fine with me. I've had a hell of a ride," ... "I have a nice house. I haven't got a palace, a mansion, but a pretty nice, comfortable home. I've raised a bunch of kids and sent them all to school, and they're all doing well. All the people that are close to me are reasonably healthy and happy. Listen, that's as much as anybody can hope for in life."

I watch YouTube on FireTV and for about two months vids will suddenly stop loading and I get the spinning circle. It always fixes when I reboot FireTV so I’m not sure where the problem originates. I find the YouTube app on Roku to be very slow and I rarely use it. I don’t think I have ever had a problem with the YouTube app on my iPad or using YouTube on Opera browser.
