It's a very strange problem. I have a video clip that I uploaded to Youtube. On youtube it drags/stutters...it's not terrible but it's nowhere near smooth. On my local machine the video plays flawlessly...super smooth, no hiccups or stutters. I've had friends check the youtube video....smooth as silk they say. I checked the Youtube video on my phone, a Kindle Fire HD, and an Ipad...no stuttering at all...super smooth.
Things I've tried:
1) Switching to HTML5 player...seemed to help slightly but that might have been my imagination.
2) Made sure I was not using pepperflash player
3) cleared cache
4) disabled hardware acceleration in browser
5) Test internet speed make sure that isn't a problem.
6) Restart computer (lol sometimes it works)
I don't get it. I have a pretty good graphics card (GTX 650), 8gb ram and a tri-core processor. I run most games at high quality high resolution with no problem whatsoever but I can't get Youtube videos to play correctly. I'm currently uploading it to Vimeo to see if the video is smoother there for some reason...other videos I've watched on there seem stuttery/laggy but I don't know what their source footage looks like. I want to compare it to my own local file.
Anyone have any idea what could be going on? My internet speed is 15mb/sec. Thanks in advance for anyone who has a clue what's wrong or tries to help.
EDIT: I'm having the same problem with Vimeo...even after I let it buffer completely it still has that lag that makes the video look awful.
