Hey everyone!

When I watch videos on youtube, the video loads to 100%, but the video stops after 2 seconds of playing.
If I go forward in the video, it plays for another 2 seconds.
What could be causing that?

Regards,
Lukas

Hello,

It sounds like your flash and shockwave might be out of date. Please check for updates on those.

Cheers,
Mak

No, and I won't try using another browser.
I really dislike Firefox :)

Hello,

There is also Opera, KMeleon, TheWorld, Flock, Maxathon, SeaMonkey, Netscapw, Safari among many others as well. Firefox is not the only alternative to Internet Explorer. Try cleaning out your Browser Cache and Temp file with software like CCLeaner.

Cheers,
Mak

Somehow the problem dissappeared... I didn`t even do anything.
I watched 30 videos now, and noone did stop after a few seconds (I watched those that didn't work before too)
I think this thread can be closed.

PS: I don't like the other browsers... I've tried almost everyone you listed above :)
I use IE for 6 Years now, I got used to it.

Hello,

Maybe a Java update went through? Other than that i would think that maybe your browser cache.

Cheers,
