Smartvideo: to watch youtube videos

If your internet is slow and you want to watch YouTube videos without interruptions , see in this article how to install an extension that can help you watch videos without drops on your computer and mobile phones.

Compared to other video sharing services, youTube is arguably one of the best video streaming on slower connections. However, sometimes when connecting to a mobile device or from a remote location where the internet connection is slow, the buffer is slow (temporary location in memory where amount of initial data agreement is stored before watching video).

When watching a video with so many interruptions, watching it becomes boring or unbearable.

If you don't have ways to increase the speed of your broadband internet connection, you can try to use an application called “ SmartVideo for YouTube ” and thus improve its streaming download. The application automatically identifies slow connections and this increases the speed and amount of video storage on YouTube so that you have pauses when the video starts.

Installation and configuration of SmartVideo in your browser

SmartVideo for YouTube is a browser extension that is available for Firefox and Chome. You can download and install it in your browser through the following links:

SmartVideo for Chrome;

SmartVideo for Firefox;

After the extension is installed it will automatically run in the background. You just go to the YouTube site and watch a video. Clicking on the icon will open a window with some basic looping options (repeat video), set the buffer percentage before starting the video or use the smart buffer (the plugin automatically adjusts the amount of buffer before starting the video.).

If you click on “Global Preferences” you can set more options according to your needs, both of the videos that are on YouTube from those that have been incorporated in other sites.
