You're going to need to supply some more info. Things like the connection speed and memory are key to running video.

Make sure your video card drivers are up to date.

Go to adobe and install the latest version of flash player.

What browser are you using. Some are better than others for streaming.

Hope this helps. Good luck

Which are better than which?

Its been my experience that lots of times its the other end that sucks.

WiFi isnt as fast as wired. Programs on your computer running in the background hurt also.

Sorry i did not read other posts but start with checking your download speed use

If it is way down, it means your internet connection outside of your house is taken from a a switch or a hub that is shared by many subscribers, and during peak time (4-10 PM ) is usually worst, or maybe if you have tanagers in your house they rob the bandwidth of yours!!
Try a known good stream like say CNN's or others when you have slow streams on other sites, it could be a bad stream too?

Post your computer specs, CPU, video card, RAM, operating system.

You can do a speed test on www.speedtest.net, you need a few MB speeds to have smooth streaming at higher resolutions.
