How fast is iVideo? When should I download instead of playing a show from the internet?
iVideo works best over a WiFi connection. You’ll have faster downloads, and playing a video without downloading will likely be seamless. With 3G or EDGE cellular data connections downloads will be slower, and when playing a video without downloading it first you may experience pauses in the playback as the video plays faster than it is received. For 3G or EDGE connections, we suggest downloading the show first, and then playing it. After downloading, the file is stored locally on your iPhone/iTouch, so playback will be seamless. And you can watch the downloaded show as often as you want – even without an internet connection.
