You Tube videos stop before ending...

Hi

I have a problem where if I watch any video on You Tube lasting more than about 40 seconds it freezes up and just flickers.

Anyone having similar problems or know a fix?

Thanks

Nick

Doesn't YouTube use flash for the videos?

Try downloading the latest version (see Help for info!)

It could possibly be the time it takes to buffer the video clip. Instead of trying to watch it all straight away, pause it for a couple of minutes to let the clip download to your machine (ie. let the progress bar fill up) then hit play.
