All video online (except the Steve Jobs one on Apple.com) freeze or won't play, or play audio only (and that freezes and skips chunks as well), or play only for a couple of seconds and then stop (with no attempt at re-buffering) or give me an error message ("not supported", etc.).

If a video has a right-click option of saving it to disk, I can do that and watch it later, but I want to watch the Daily Show clips on comedycentral.com, and there's no option to save them to disk.

I have OS X 10.4.3 on a Mini, RealPlayer 10, Windows Media Player 9, and Quicktime 7. DSL line with ~615 kpbs connection. The connection is working fine. Please help!

Won't play, halt, pause, stutter, "not supported" all happens with Windows Media Player only. QuickTime and RealPlayer work fine with streaming video.

Thanks! But let's say that Quicktime does stutter on my system. What would cause that?

Would you happen to know what I can do about watching music videos on Yahoo Music? I get an error message that Mac users need to install "Netscape 4.7x", but that's weird, seeing as 4.7 was released in 1999, and "4.7x" doesn't seem to exist at all.

Thanks!

Either your connection is too slow (you can see how much of the movie is transfered in the Info window – ⌘I ). Then lower your connection speed setting in System Preferences->QuickTime->Streaming. Or you are trying to watch a H.264 stream on a Mac that is too slow to decode H.264. H.264 needs a lot of CPU power.

You need Windows to view those.
