But I am open to suggestions, so I just installed flash on a freshly installed windows inside a VM and oh wonder it's the same result: ustream and own3d working fine while justin.tv lags even at 240p. I am so glad that TSL was broadcast on ustream. I can only imagine the clusterfuck that would've been on jtv | ||

can some people do me a favor and post or at least just view the justin.tv thread, if it is consistently seen maybe they will have more trouble ignoring it? http://community.justin.tv/forums/showthread.php?t=7495 Thanks for everyone's continued support | ||

Now I just gotta pinpoint my problem. I'm gonna try and stream from the university, once I get back and then I'll know if JTV just doesn't play nice in certain places or just not some ISPs | ||

I tried connecting through my neighbor's wireless because he had DSL and I wanted to see if it was a problem with my ISP. Lo and behold, it worked fine even with a marginal wireless signal. I've since switched to DSL and have had no problems with streaming video since. Yes, cable is theoretically faster than DSL under ideal conditions. But I guess Comcast doesn't invest in enough bandwidth, because during peak usage hours, it's actually a lot slower. | ||

during the same timeframe i can consistently watch all other streaming sites, every single one of them, EXCEPT justin.tv my problem is different than yours because justin.tv is the only thing that is at fault, and again, it isn't lack of bandwidth or lack of downloading speed on the part of my connection, because of the fact that every other streaming service works correctly, no matter if i have to download more data faster or less data slower | ||

I see ok then well when your logged in JTV has a bandwidth set and sometimes bugs get into it and makes you lag but since you don't log in its not that then do you have the same problem on other streams? maybe its the broadcast your watching that lags and not you oh my god the people on the justin.tv forums are seriously retarded | ||

I checked the justin.tv stream... and it's just impossible to watch. I even tried 480p, but it still interrupts every second. The I found a link to another stream(1080p stream at aftonbladet.se): completely smooth, no interrupts, great quality With NASL starting tomorrow, I just don't know how am I supposed to watch it | ||

because i know i am seems to me like the nasl and justin.tv have a partnership seeing as they have a special subscription channel and you pay for nasl on justin.tv servers maybe they could encourage justin.tv to try to fix this issue? also if you want to laugh read the nasl chat, tons of people saying they are having lag, although the only mod or admin posts i've seen mentioning the lag say essentially "it's your connection, sucks for you" -_- | ||

I'm fairly convinced Comcast throttles streaming video sites. | ||

i will try a different connection whenever i can but there is no reason that it would make a difference, in fact it's the opposite, there are reasons saying that it would NOT make a difference. | ||

Guess I learned my lesson. sorry if you got the wrong impression, but i did say "i will try a different connection whenever i can" as you suggested, thanks but seriously do you know how frustrating it is to put this much work and effort into fixing something, get no response from the people who could actually help fix it, and then have random people telling you things like "JTV has a bandwidth set and sometimes bugs get into it and makes you lag" as an explanation for this problem | ||

Something I've learned working with technical problems over the years is to try lots of different things, one at a time. Half the time the thing that fixes the problem is something that really shouldn't work. Hopefully it'll at least give you more information about the problem. | ||
