Default Re. another educated redneck

The guy at the end of this video makes out better than the educated redneck (plus lots of cool bike tricks).

Very cool. They are very sure of their selfs.

Quick side topic. Watching the video it would stop every now and then for about 2 - 3 seconds and then start up again. Whats with that? Does my computer need more something?

Sorry for the off topic but it bugged me.

If you are connected via phone modem your connection is not fast enough to keep the movie running. I usually connect to download and go back to the Forum until the movie is completely downloaded, it then plays OK. One other thing may depend on how much RAM you are running. 500+ is good but 1000 is better.

Great video, but I like the one better where they "Crash & Burn"

bigdogdad, if you have DSL with Sprint that should be quick enough to play the video without stopping. How much RAM do you have in your system? When was the last time you did a defrag, scandisk, etc. How much free space do you have? You may need to do a little tune-up on your system.

One other thing to consider is if the server was getting lots of hits that could slow down the feed.

More bandwidth or less latency.

Try increasing the amount of buffering your Media Player does to account for bottlenecks.

Guess they want to be stunt men when they grow, if they survive that long.... [:I][B)]
