iPod touch Youtube still choppy with 3.0 !

[shankar2]

Hi all, I love youtube and would like to see videos via my Ipod touch 2g, with 3.0. However what happens is that whenever I hit the play button, it chokes within a few seconds and then the program forces me to play the play button again and again (choppy).

This is quite irritating that you have to press the play button again and again unlike in real desktop youtube, the program keeps trying to play without the user having to re-press the play button.

Any fixes to this issue please? I'm using 512kpbs broadband.

Thanks,

Regards,
Shankar

It seems to be a bandwidth problem. YouTube isn't being choppy, it's buffering. The iPod touch isn't what's causing the problem. Also, in todays world 512 is pretty slow. If you're trying to watch HD movies it may take a while. Just pause the movie until you see it's mosty complete. See if you can get a faster connection in your area as well.
Cheers
