I'm sick of stop/start videos on youTube and the like due to bandwidth problems, so I've installed DownloadHelper for Firefox from the Mozilla site. It recognises embedded video and will download them so you can watch them without that annoying stop/start thing due to network congestion.

I'm talking about a lack of bandwidth, slow servers, etc. during peak times.

Where the video stops to buffer and then starts again if thats what your talking about then thats what i was. I couldnt understand why it sorted but it did.
