Has anyone had Youtube video or streaming video stuttering and lag? I am almost sure it has to do with the wifi but not sure.

I have actually experienced this almost constantly since about 2 weeks after I first booted mine. It happens a lot with the Silver light plug-in that Netflix uses.

I have not experienced this problem with Xubuntu or Windows 8. I would suspect the wifi connection as well.

Yes they run You tube Videos and live Streaming events very well. But you need to make sure your current Internet Provider has a stable connection sometimes it isn't the Computer but the Internet Provider I have found when you are watching YouTube. They can be the cause of some of the problemwith videos that stop and then start.Over all a very good computer I have 2 this model and an earlier model I only had one problem and that was after about 9 months of purchase I had to have the Power supply's replaced it didn't cost that much and I have no other problems.

I am not network specialist. For many of my problem and solve this problem I am using youtube (video).

I am having an issue with my 5400. Worked great out of the box for about 3 months....Then the video started flickering, then would go black for about 5-10 seconds then come back. (very annoying when watching sports!). anyone have any ideas?

I've had this once too. But it wasn't with youtube, it was just that I unplugged from one TV and went and plugged it in another. It froze while loading. I had to hit the reset button on the bottom and redo all my account logins. Only happened once so far, I only used it a handful amounts of times so far but I don't really use YouTube much. Hope this helps.

In my experience wi-fi for gaming or streaming is generally more stuttery. I use an ethernet connection to avoid that.

There are several options in the video output stream to let you see the video on a very slow connection. You can adjust the frames per second and the video dimensions. Making fps and the dimensions smaller do the trick. The higher the fps and dimensions, the better the quality. I've accessed these webcams on dial up (19.2kbps) and been able to see the output, but you pay the price in that it is choppy and small.

The router works fine on youtube. As far as livestreaming goes; I don't know.

It's probably because of your internet connection....try connecting your TV to your modem/router with an ethernet cable OR if that isn't an option, try going in to the Hulu settings and changing the speed of the video. On my blu-ray player I have to change Hulu to SD instead of HD to get shows to not stutter. It's a hulu problem, hulu hasn't figured out how to stream flawlessly like netflix does.

It all depends on the network...on my 3mbps home wifi, netflix works fine, very minimal loading time, no pauses for buffering and good quality...but if I'm on a public network or trying to piggyback on my next door neighbors' wifi (they gave me the password! sometimes at&t; goes down and they have comcast.) then it can be a struggle to get videos to load at all, much less play smoothly. But I don't think the device itself has any particular limitations as to what videos it can stream.

I have had it lag sometimes. Try resetting your phone back to factory and see if it helps. Could be a specific app or setting. Mine restarts at least once a day no big deal. You could flash it also could find a vid on youtube.

It lags, unfortunately. That is the only issue I have but I installed apps for daughter to view kid's stories, songs, abcs etc

Same problem and same solution.Yes, it's annoying but fortunately it occurs infrequently. About four times since the middle of December. I have not found any other solution yet.I suspect that it is somehow related to the streaming downloads.

My connection is not SUPER fast, it claims to be 15 MB/sec but it's always lower than that. It depends on the connection of who watches it. Like from my phone it interrupts sometimes. I noticed that the camera disconnects sometimes depending on where you install it. Keep it away from interference (microwaves, wireless phones etc.)

Did you try powering it off and back on? If your capturing high res video with sound then you may need a stronger wifi signal.

You are welcome. Do me (us) a favor and let me know which one you decide to keep and why. If the next firmware revision or two does not fix the video streaming, then I will probably add one of those two just for Hulu. You could save me the hassle of buying both, comparing, and returning one :)
