Something wrong with your feed on these WordPress videos...

Various WordPress video's that I've been viewing yesterday and today have been endlessly buffering. My internet connection is fine and some of your videos work well, so my guess is that the problem is somewhere on your end.

Please assist, this is most annoying.

Hi Alexandr,

Out of personal interest to me, as our household is due an upgrade to our internet connection very soon... what is your connection normally like? If you run an internet speed test what do the numbers look like? Download and upload speed the higher the better obviously but sometimes the "ping" or response rate can have an effect too. The lower the ping ratr the better for you.

At our home we currently get 1.9mbsp, download... if we're having a good day. (I know, super slow, right?) So buffering videos is something I have to put up with sometimes, especially as the videos produced by Treehouse are of such high quality.

For example, the videos I stream via Treehouse, for the most part, run okay but the "Treehouse Show" videos tend to buffer more than most.
