I specifically asked if I would have to wait for buffers to fill hen I ordered Guitarttricks.. I was told no,
so why am I waiting for buffers to fill?

There is nothing more useless than a Video which shows me fat fingers hiding a fretboard. Show me which strings are being played!

Maybe you have a slow connection. I've never had to wait for a video, and I've been using this site for a year.

As for what strings to play, every video has tab right underneath it.

If your connection or settings don't support rapid play of the lesson videos try resetting your video resolution. A lower resolution may boost the speed at which the videos load. Perhaps a change of the viewer being used might help too...new to old or old to new. Both resolution settings and viewer settings can be found directly below the videos' screen.

All that said, and in my recollection, buffering hasn't surfaced as an issue in a year or two. Sometimes there are internet node issues but that usually looks like a slow initial response from servers, not slow downloads/buffering. In any case, yours may be a problem specific to your gear and 'your' connections.

For tech help, click on the "Help" button found near the top right corner of every GT page. Then click the "Submit A Request" tab on the bar at the top. That's a much faster and specific way to get help with these kinds of problems. The folks that work that desk are great!!

Welcome to GT and the forum.

Oh....just curious. Which instructor are you accusing of having fat fingers? :D

I have 6 tapes. Its not so much the fingers, as it is the poor camera angles
that show a fretboard with fingers playing notes- but you cant see which strings are actually being played. 4 out of 6 were poorly done. Not necessarily on this website...
