Xbox Video - Buffering

Unfortunately there is no download option. Best thing to do is if you get that buffering issue is simply to go and find the video on YouTube or similar.

Sometimes, for some people, the Xbox streamed videos on the marketplace just buffer and stutter. Other times it won't for that same person/console.

The Xbox one videos are always buffering. No problem on Netflix I don't understand it.

I'm gonna try to clear my system cache and stuff and see if that helps. The freezing doesn't seem like a big problem on my end, my problem is the constant buffering. I can get through 4 minutes videos with no problem but i watch a lot of 30 min to a hour
videos and a quarter of the way through it just buffers and buffers and buffers non stop. I still find myself restarting the video because it's faster then letting the damn thing buffer. They haven't fixed any problems but made it much much worse.

My connection is not great, mostly because i use wireless and its not very consistent so i get a lot of drops in my connection and when that happens the video will buffer most of the time. On the old Youtube app it would take like 10 or 15 seconds to buffer
sometimes less but i didn't buffer that much maybe 2 or sometimes 3 times a video. On the New youtube layout i get stuck in what seems like a endless buffer and have to restart the video 95% of the time to get out of it. If i have a 2 bar connection the video
plays with no problems but if i have a 3 bar it stops mid video and i get stuck in a buffer.

I personally liked the old version more because buffering was a issue but not that big of a problem. The new version i get stuck in endless buffers and sometimes i can't even get videos to play there also seems to be a endless video loading bug to which
is annoying. Hopefully they fix it I'm just going to use my computer from now on.

I would vote if the browser would let me (keeps telling me 'We couldn't submit your vote at this time.'). But honestly I doubt this will happen, my guess is the agreements they have with content providers like Beachbody specifies they only have a streaming
license and specifically prohibits saving to disk.

Although if that is true it doesn't mean they can't improve. The streaming has been pretty solid for me lately, but on those few off days where I do have issues it seems like it could have been prevented. Xbox Fitness seems to only buffer a tiny amount of
the video. When your connection acts up only a little bit it can result in switching between HD and SD multiple times, or it just runs out of buffer. Simply buffering more seems like a relatively easy solution to most of the streaming issues. Take Youtube
as an example, once you start to play a Youtube video it tries to buffer as much of the video as possible. Even if you pause a Youtube video it continues to buffer. And not unimportant, the use can see how much of the video is already buffered. Just having
a bigger buffer in general should lead to less hiccups, but when a connection really is questionable a user could simple pause the video at the beginning and build up enough buffer so the video will play smoothly.
