Any suggestions and or other places to watch these movies. — asked by Anonymous
Hi — Most of the content is streamed and the players embedded so file sizes really are not a factor in page rendering or playback, like for watching YouTube videos. It will be mostly affected by bandwidth and Internet connection issues rather than anything having to do with your computer, system or browser. If it were a browser issue, you’d see that as a piece of content not appearing at all, probably with a notation about needing to update Flash or something.
A couple of possible suggestions, though:
- Try refreshing the site a few times and playing the content a few times. This should cache the non-streaming parts of the site (such as menus and graphics) on your computer, freeing up bandwidth for the streaming parts (such as the Vuvoxes and videos).
- Play the content directly from the embedded services. Here are links to our Vuvox channel, our YouTube channel and our Vimeo channel. That takes the website itself completely out of the loop in terms of connection performance. That shouldn’t make any difference. But if you play someone else’s content from those services and get the same or different results, you’ll know.
If you have any other questions or comments, tweet us and we’ll try to help.
