Re: Totem-Gstreamer - Playing network streams - how do I set the cache size?

[Ari El <ari reads gmail com>]

Thanks Bastien!

I doubled the buffer and the threshold, but I'm still having stutter / jerky
playback problems with the dayly video at the top of this site:

I'm sure its not a BW problem. A similar issue with the mplayer mozilla
plugin I could fix increasing the buffer and threshold, but no luck with
totem. Any hint?

TIA
ari
