Youtube video stutters, but audio is perfectly fine?

[465]

it doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it's extremely annoying. not only does it happen to me when i'm on my browser, it does the same on my iphone

am i the only one with this problem?

since google bought youtube and changed the streaming method it has never been the same it now downloads individual chunks of the video around 300-500k and many browsers flash plugins don't work too well which is not surprising as firefox for instance creates 1600 cache folders all with a part of the video in

Your ''Cache'' (Temp Internet Files), "Virtual Memory'' and/or "PageFiling'' may be full
and cannot take anymore.  Simply delete your Cache (plus "Cookies" and "History"),
then clear your Memory with a shutdown & reboot.  Afterwards, you will freak at how
good and trouble-free YouTube will be.  Also, if you have an 'Adblock', try disabling it.
