This is something I've been noticing recently. Videos on flash players load incredibly slowly and skip every few seconds. On my PC at home, these videos load fine and play right away, but not so on my Macbook. Does anyone else have this problem?

that has more to do with your wifi connection. But on any course make sure you hqvethe most recent updates and thy should play fine. I've never had any problems playing flash or even streaming videonover wifi on my MacBook pro

I'm getting this on my iBook from time to time as well, especially on high-res flash players.

I don't really know the source of the problem, but it definitely hasn't got to do with the internet connection's speed here. (24mbits/s)

I do however, notice a large increase in speed when the video's fully loaded, though, so you might wanna wait a few minutes for it to be fully loaded, and you might expect the framerate to go up.
