The video takes a long time to start. Whats wrong?

Using Video on Demand starts a stream just for you. It takes time for your computer to begin capturing and store some (buffer) the video- typically 10 to 20 seconds- so it will run more smoothly once it starts. The faster your computer and the connection, the shorter the wait and the smoother the video will run. I can hear but don’t see anything but a Windows Media icon. This is typical of a connection that’s not quite fast enough. Most likely there is “network congestion”- too much traffic on the network. Try again at a different time period.
