Becket Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) When I watch a video on you tube or alot of other TV link sites I go to, when I click fullscreen it goes full but the picture freezes up but the audio still goes. It never used to do that.Does anyone have any idea why it's doing that and how I can fix it?Any explaination would be apreciated. Thanks.

Thanks.pause the video, then full screen it, then try to play it. it maybe because of it trying to laod, while playing the audio. it really confuses the computer sometimes.maybe caused because youtube has too many people on it at the same time.

Becket Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 Yeah I've tried that, no luck. It's like that all the time now for the past week, and not only on you tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownRock Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 If your running lots of other programs/web pages then close them before running it in full screen as they might be hogging up the memory. Also wait till the video's buffer has fully loaded before you try watching it. Either and/or both of those might help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 I havn't been watching with other programs or web pages running but I'll try letting it fully buffer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
