    I've noticed that sometimes when streaming more than about 5 videos on youtube in firefox (all tabbed), sometimes the sound doesn't play for the next video streamed. Usually I just stream the video in IE or Opera so I have it waiting to watch but I was wondering if anyone else had this problem or knew how to fix it.

    It seems to also happen with dailymotion.com I have no idea if it happens with other sites that are similar.

    i personally do not think that this is a browser issue, but the availability of the bandwidth allowed to any "one" connection at the time. Same thing as when u r trying to download a bunch of files from ONE source. In the case of video/audio feed, it would cause delay and mis.sync when the bandwidth is busy or overloading

    cheers ...
