Streaming audio and/or video stuttering or skipping

[Victoria]

When listening to internet radio or a video newsclip from say NYTimes, the
audio or video runs great for a minute or so, then stops (as if re-loading)
then starts and stops in very short bursts. This is a Vista HP/OS. Any
suggestions? Thanks

Be patient. It might be fixed in SP4.

Cheers.

Victoria,

That sound like a bandwidth problem more than a vista problem

Problems with bandwidth.

You are seeing a problem with buffering. Look at Media Player Options to see
if you can set it larger.

OK, what is the best way to correct this problem?
Thanks

This problem is related to the Protected Mode setting. I just went over to
The NYT site and experienced the same problem. I've answered this problem in
a post entitled "problems with audio streaming". You'll find the solution
there. If you need a walk-through lemme know.
