During a live webcam show the streaming video keeps pausing, distorting and/or buffering frequently. How do I resolve this problem?
The live video feed is broadcasting at approximately 350kbps, so if you are using dialup internet access you will experience pausing and/or buffering. Make sure that you have all the proper software mentioned in the Site Requirements installed on your computer . You can try disabling all cookie restricting software such as a firewall and/or anti-virus that you may have on your computer. Also try closing any unimportant software running on your desktop as they are using RAM and slowing down the computer. Streaming problems may also be caused by congestion on the internet. If you experience buffering problems, right-click on the Media Player, select Options and change Network Buffering to Buffer = 15, 30, or more seconds of content. This advice also applies if you have high-speed internet access.
