Hi all

After a little guidance as to what might be causing some issues I'm having while watching BBC iPlayer.

Basically if I watch something on iPlayer (and sometimes youtube too!) the picture gets really blocky (pixalating?) and it's a mare to view. It was really noticeable while watching F1 qualifying on iPlayer, especially when something fast moving is on the screen i.e. a bloody car.

My connection is fine, my lappy is fine, but when I watched F1 last season with an AOL 2mb connection everything was hunky-dory, now I'm with BT and I have an 8MB contract with constant 5MB speed. It never has to buffer while I'm watching, so I know the speed is fine, but what could cause this to happen? I might add I don't watch iPlayer that often except during the F1 season if I miss some action, so it's hard to say when this has happened. All I know is it was OK last year, and it's lousy now. Browser is Firefox, if that helps?

Thanks.

Firefox memory leaks?

Latest version of flash? All drivers inc gpu driver up to date?

Nice one! Thanks Finlay, just updated Flashplayer to 10 and it seems to have cured it. Certainly much better than it was yesterday.

Thanks.
