Cannot view entire race start or restart videos

Postby nivaun on Sat Mar 12, 2011 1:32 pm

The videos buffer and play just fine but they bounce to the beginning of the video after a few minutes of play so I can not see the entire video. I can not fast forward beyond where the video returns to the beginning. I can watch about 10 minutes of the ceremonial start and about 5 minutes of the restart.

I'm being redundant but yea, 2.5 hours is way overly optimistic ppl. :ugeek:

I will have to view the archived start from a DSL or other urban high speed computer connection as the rural satellite internet connection i use, which serves most of my needs, has user limits that total about 1.5 hours of video or music download...Then my system bogs down as i get put on restriction. So I then must purchase restore tokens, or wait 24 hours ...THEN when i try to view restart or start, is begins loading and playing from the beginning... :!: :cry: :!:

In my experience the 10-15 minute clips format 8-) you used for last year's archived starts were MUCH more user friendly...boohoo. :cry:
If you don't want to get hurt, don't ride!

So, I wasn't alone in my frustration.
I have DSL with the same problems these posters had.
