They are going to get rid of 30 second ads that can't be skipped.

Re: Youtube issues. Is this still a thing?
 

its not the ads, this happens after the ads, the video plays for a few seconds and then stops and buffers and suddenly jumps along and is fine then.

There was an issue at one time with VM's CDNs. When you play the video what shows in the task bar? Is it Youtube or a VM CDN?

not sure will have to check.

says waiting for s.youtube.com

Also just noticed while it stops it drops the res of the video to minimum. u then have to select max yourself again.

Do a quick nslookup on YouTube.com - You'll see that everything is diverted to Virgin IP addresses.

I've recently set my main DNS to Google's (8.8.8.8) and this has remedied my YouTube woes. Browsing has been somehwat breezier, also.

You can try this on a single PC to prove a point or set it on your router if you want all LAN devices to go through it.

I've not witnessed this since I got my Asus, which would be explained by the above as when I set it up I set it to use Google's DNS rather than Virgin's.
