What does video buffering do?
398285
Buffer in this context is temporary storage.  Video buffering is when it takes video from whatever webpage your viewing and stores it temporarily onto your computer.  It's there to help reduce the amount of jitter and help it play more smoothly.

This is called streaming media.\nRead more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_media\n----------------\nAnd http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&hs=mgD&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official_s&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=streaming+video&spell=1

you can turn down the resolution of the video to like ummm............... 0.5x0.5 using half a pixel by half a pixel shouldnt take up 100MB

I am guessing you mean Streaming?\n\nStreaming is used in networking because if you tried to watch a standard video file you would have to download the entire file before you could view it, using streaming allows some bursts of packets (or video/audio data) to be sent to the computer where the size of the data is determined by your internet bandwidth i.e. 256k.\nWhen you start to watch a video or listen to audio across the net the first bit is cached/buffered (or stored) on the PC then the rest is sent in burst to allow you to continue watching the video without it stopping, generally you have to chose a streaming bandwidth. Sometimes you may get a 'buffering' message which is telling you that the network is busy stopping the server sending you the data at the predetermined speed.

Check your connection. if dial-up/cable, maybe problem in lines. I think Windows website said if MP kept buffering, you had a poor connection.

It is obvious that you run out of memory. You've got a pretty strong system however, with continued usage, say 10 minutes, your temporary memory is clogged with all the data that is now obselete. What should happen is that the old data should be dumped and new data should be accomodated. What is actually happening is that your old data sits pretty, exhausting your memory, though after 10 minutes of usage coz you've got plenty of it. You need some program like MEMTURBO or others, some of which are free as well. What these memory management program do is that they clear the old and make room for the new.\n\nThe reason for choppy video being, when you run out of memory the graphic signals bypass the memory and are processed without a buffer either from the hard disk or the network connection, which is obivously not as fast as the buffer (memory). Hope this helps.

after you have edited your movie you then apply a codec to it there are loads of different ones and each one will compress your video in a different way you need to pick one that suits your video.\n\nyour right that is video playing on a flash player but you would create it first compress it and then import it into flash.

"Buffering" is the process of putting data into memory whenever it cannot be displayed or shown immediately.  For example, when you type characters in a command line interface or even in a regular window, if the computer is too busy to process the text, it will be put into a buffer of a certain length in memory.  When the computer has the CPU free to process the text, it takes what's in the buffer and processes it.  In fact, most text is buffered; the operations take place on such a fast micro level that it's not evident to the human eye.\n\nIn the case of media player, it likely is assembling the sound and video data into playable blocks of a set format.  If the next "block" has not been downloaded, then media player has to "buffer" it until it receives all of the data in the next block.  Does that make sense?  I hope it helps.

When it streams, it is connecting to their streaming server and depending on your internet bandwidth, it will be clunky or it will stream easily. Normally they download parts of it to your computer or their server and then play that part while the next bit downloads. Its called "buffering". If your broadband is slow, it will not be that smooth.

its optimized, its just doing that so your computer doesnt have to work as hard. when you export/save the final, it should be the original quality.\nyou dont happen to know anything aboput premiere do ya?

Well, there isn't a program to do that linearly.\n\nThe closest you can get is use Camtasia (30 day FULL trial) to record screen activity. Camtasia is also a great video editor.\n\nIf you save your video (avi, mov, mpeg), you can then open it with Windows Movie Maker and record back onto your miniDV tape.\n\n(You mentioned streaming video. Just a note: a screen capture program can not capture a video that's playing on your computer. It's a weird hardware-type issue.)\n\nGood Luck

You are probably viewing the video through a poor source on the other end. If it isn't your internet connection that is making it choppy, it is the other end's problem with too slow upload rates. This would make sense since the first time you watch it, it is choppy. Though as you said, if you give it time to upload, it would smoothly run the already uploaded parts.

If you change size, you must recompress the video. You can choose a lossless or a high-quality codec to preserve the video quality.\n\nYour only alternative would be to just use a player that scales the video on playback, but it doesn't alter the original file at all.

you need to download a program and having it running while watching the video.

there are several speeds at which the video is processed.same with songs as they can be played at 192 kbit per seconds or 120 kbits per second.video files will be processed much faster however you can convert them to play at the playback spped you wish.i suggest you download divx converter this will automatically change the playback speed of the file to the speed you wish.

You can do this by updrading ur RAM, PROCESSOR, etc...\n\nBy here is a good and cool software which speeds up ur system:\n\ndownload it from here:\n\nhttp://www.webiz.designoman.net/speedxp/speeder.zip\n\nIts really Cool But be sure not to use it while playing Movies or videos..\n\nIf this helped u vote me as best answer...\n\nThanks,\n\nbye..

you will need to put a cgi plug-in on your web-page to stream the video, .... that's a lot of overhead.  you may wish to check with your ISP to see what you need to do to stream video across their network or you may find that you will be "timed out" for exceeding the data-rate for your account
