8ring Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Hello: I downloaded the Todd Jarrett video about the proper way to grip a handgun. The video is about 4:25 in length. I also downloaded the Google video player needed to run the video. When I tried to play the video a "buffering" process started that has gone on for about 12 hours and is still not complete. Other video players would ususally take 5 to 10 minutes, at most, to buffer a video of this size. My computer in a new HP with an AMD Athlon 64 processor, 1 GB RAM, and XP Media Center. Any diagnoses of the problem or suggestions on how to speed this up? Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paule Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Sounds like your OS may have swapped the process out to virtual mem and never brought it back. I'd stop it and try again. Media Player 9 does this occasionally too. Hope this helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Maybe you got a bad download? I know Todd shoots faster than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8ring Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 The part of the video that has been buffered (first 3 minutes) plays fine. I left the computer on all day today and it buffered another 30 seconds of the video. If I leave it on all night, it should be done. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
