I'm on my iPhone right now, so my connection is a lot slower than your average cable/DSL connection (3G).

Quite simply, your problem might be that your Internet connection is a bit slow. YouTube tries to stream the video faster than your Internet connection can download it. I'd check your modem and/or router, and if the problem persists, call your ISP. Best of luck!

It's been doing that to me for over two months. I'll try deleting my history and see if that helps. Hope it starts working for you soon.

Ive been having no sound on youtube for a month or too. I can see videos on youtube but no sound until I opened up Realplayer and got sound. It could be your internet browser. But I know what your talking about because sometimes, I would watch a video and then it would freeze then it would play and then freeze again etc. It is very annoying. I think it might be a youtube problem more than anything else.

Mike, I will say dont bother contacting youtube because you cant. There is no one to talk too. The only people they have are people who dont work for youtube but they are "experts". Basically, it would be like me asking a question and have somebody answer me. The problem is, how do you know what they say is correct?

YouTube has been real screwy for the past couple of weeks. I am aware of a lot of members having various different problems.

Some people have videos marked as "watched" show up on their accounts that they haven't viewed.

Some people's "Recent Activity" is lost on their main page.

The "Latest Activity" which shows when you last logged on has the wrong dates.

YouTube must be going through some sort of major glitch since many people have been having all of these different problems around the same time.
