Youtube is being really slow

My download speed stays the same, but Youtube videos take forever to buffer.
Is this just me?

I brought download speeds up to prove that my internet speed isn't lacking, only the youtube videos that i try to watch.

[quote=tempest1352]My problem is a bit different, the gray meter that shows how much the video has loaded is way too slow, meanwhile everything else is fine.[/quote]

Oh my bad, I guess I was just frustrated with my problem which I can't find a solution to, sorry.

[quote=Avatar]Yes I have that problem too its very annoying, even when the entire bar is red, it still lags every 2-5 seconds. I discovered a little trick that if you keep the mouse moving around while the video is playing, it doesn't have lag spikes.[/quote]
