Think I found a solution to the Youtube buffering

[Risco]

Well at least with firefox, just force all youtubes to play in HD with this addon

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-quality-manager/

Since I have used it, I have not seen any buffering. Plus it saves the hassle of changing the quality each time! Might be a placebo effect, so let me know if it works!

My proxy is the solution for me. In addition skysports videos wont even play on my VM without a proxy, the page just stays white where the video should be. Is it my browser? well when I load the same page using my proxy the video loads.

Not that I know of.

So has anyone tried this? Is it a placebo effect or has it worked for some people?

Anyway, wouldnt making it HD make it take even longer anyway? I get the same issue on the same video no matter what the quality.
