Buffering Situation

Buffering Situation

If you play the tv show in real play how long does it take if you just left it to buffer all the way as at my end it seems pretty slow and I have the best possible internet with 50mb broadband.

Honestly, it depends on the traffic on the site, not your broadband capabilities. I've had it load in about 10 minutes, other times it might take 20, 30 or 40 mins. Never longer than 40 though.

Do you mean to load (as it %)? Yeh, normally takes about that, but we are talking about when you play it in Realplayer mode and it plays ahead, as in the bar goes blue all the way to the end.
