It's pretty late on a Friday night, so heavy traffic on the uni network is unlikely to be affected my net connection. The videos looked good, *except* that they were both constantly stopping and starting, which totally ruined the viewing experience.\r\n\r\nWhen this happens on YouTube or Vimeo, I can usually fix it by pausing the video for a few seconds, and letting it buffer a bit, then hitting play, or by going back to the start, so it can play the pre-loaded bit while the next bit loads. This sometimes works on PeerTube, but it's a bit hit and miss. Also, I don't usually have to do that much on the legacy video sites these days, because they try to do that buffering automatically. \r\n\r\nConsidering that PeerTube sites are often loading videos from another instance, and that WebTorrent introduces another layer of complexity, I think it makes sense to make the buffering behaviour of the PeerTube player quite conservative. In other words, I'd rather it did more buffering than it needs to, than not enough. If I have to watch a spinning beech ball for a while after I press play, before the video starts, that's a minor annoyance compared to having it stop and start while it's playing, or worse, freeze up entirely."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/comments/396851148","html_url":"https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/585#issuecomment-396851148","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/585","id":396851148,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDM5Njg1MTE0OA==","user":{"login":"rigelk","id":6329880,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjYzMjk4ODA=","avatar_url":"https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/6329880?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk","html_url":"https://github.com/rigelk","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/rigelk/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-06-13T08:04:55Z","updated_at":"2018-06-13T08:04:55Z","author_association":"COLLABORATOR","body":"@strypey the webtorrent desktop client already allows you to play in VLC.
