Hi, i use the youtube plugin extensively and had a couple of questions/issues:
- Buffer size: how does the plugin buffer? is there some way to increase this? does it just buffer the next say 10 seconds, or does it start plyaing and then continues to load rest of the video depending on your internet connection? i have a really fast cable connection, the site gives me no problems, but I find sometimes i get pauses when playing via this plugin. I've also noticed sometimes the video just completely pauses, and wont start playing no matter what i do how long i wait for it.
- large forward/small forward: somewhat related to above, I've noticed the first time i do a short/longjump in video, the video moves forward, but successive jumps take a while to load, especially on a long jump it will take up to 20-30 seconds to jump forward, and sometimes just stops. is it because the video isn't fully buffered, or some other issue?
I'm not sure if this is an xbmc issue, or a plugin issue but would be great if you could address this.
