There are a few things you can do to enhance your video experience. Poor sound/video quality, excessive buffering, and lack of a video signal are usually due to a computer resource issue. Try not to run other applications while playing videos. If you are accessing Yahoo! videos through a LAN (Local Area Network), you may experience excessive buffering or connectivity delays as a result of the number of users and/or PCs on your LAN. Yahoo! requires a minimum connection speed of 100kbps to watch video. You may need to lower your bandwidth setting. On the player, in the upper left-hand section is the "Preferences" link. Clicking it will present you with the different bandwidth options available. Selecting a lower bitrate than the currently displayed bitrate will restart the video at a lower bandwidth setting.

If full screen video is not up to your satisfaction, please return to the reduced video screen by hitting the escape button (Esc) on your keyboard.

To see if your PC meets the minimum requirements, See the system requirements.
