What is buffering?

Internet Streaming Media FAQ
Players that read streaming media must first process a certain amount of the stream (at least one packet) in order to display anything. The buffer is a word for computer memory that stores digital information that will later be processed. The computer memory can either be in the form of RAM or a partial temporary file that the media player constructs from the stream.

Why my video sometimes shows "buffering"?

Sometimes you might experience slow, congested network. Just click on PAUSE and wait a few minutes then click PLAY to resume your video

My stream is buffering, why?

Streaming - FAQ
There are usually three sections in the streaming "chain" that could be causing the buffering of the stream that the end user receives. If the source audio or video going into the encoder is not very good then this would just be replicated through the end user. So firstly you need to insure that the source feed is okay.

How can I get my script's output without Apache buffering it? Why doesn't my server push work?

Apache Server Frequently Asked Questions
of Apache 1.3, CGI scripts are essentially not buffered. Every time your script does a "flush" to output data, that data gets relayed on to the client. Some scripting languages, for example Perl, have their own buffering for output - this can be disabled by setting the $| special variable to 1. Of course this does increase the overall number of packets being transmitted, which can result in a sense of slowness for the end user. Prior to 1.

My media player keeps re-buffering. What can I do?

P2P-Radio: FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
The bandwidth of your Internet connection could be too low. But most probably, that's the broadcaster's fault and his bandwidth isn't sufficient to serve the stream. If you are a broadcaster, please set up a normal Shoutcast server and test if you can serve at least two clients without problems. To decrease the bandwidth requirements of P2P-Radio, stream with a lower bit rate. You should use the Ogg Vorbis format because it sounds better at low bit rates.

I am getting too much buffering. What can I do?

AccuRadio - The Next Generation of Radio
If you're on a dial-up connection, AccuRadio will work best when you're not listening to AccuRadio AND doing other things that use your Internet connection (looking at big/complex web pages, downloading or uploading files, etc.).

Why is there so much video buffering?

FRONTLINE: about us: faqs | PBS
Unfortunately, there are many points between our media server and your computer that might be slowing the process down. Our media server won't serve you the stream unless it has sufficient bandwidth, so it's quite hard to tell where the problem lies. Our recommendation would be to try back later. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Why do videos stream in segments rather than buffering and playing in their entirety?

FAMECAST - FAQ
This site uses a pure streaming technology. Each time you want to play a video, it will be streamed through the Internet. If you have an unstable connection, videos may display choppy.

a. What about buffering/neutralization? So many people say different things?

Frequently Asked Questions
Several of our peels (glycolic pH levels: 30%-2.1, 40%-2.1, 50%-2.1, 60%-2.1, Salicylic 3%-2.1, 15%-2.1, 25%-2.1) are partially neutralized for your safety. Through the process of neutralizing, an effective and safe pH level is attained while maintaining the acid as the active. Plainly stated the lower the pH level the quicker and more aggressive the peel will be. If you are applying a peel in your home it needs to be at a safe, yet still effective level.

Why is buffering important in paper products?

Questions & answers
The addition of a buffering agent to paper products helps neutralize acids that come in direct contact with the paper. A buffering agent also prevents acids from migrating to other areas of the page or onto photographs. Acids that come in direct contact with your photographs could accelerate the natural aging process and cause them to discolor or fade.

What is the difference between buffering capacity and pH?

Discus Land: FAQ, Discus, Discus tanks, Discus Breeding, Dis...
pH is defined as the Power of Hydrogen atoms in the water. It is read on a scale from 0 (totally acid) to 14 (totally alkaline). Discus like somewhat acid water. I like to keep mine at around 6.5. I have heard some breeders recommend going as low as 5.5. Buffering capacity is the ability of water to resist changes in pH. Water with very low buffering capacity can experience rapid large pH changes, so this is something you'd naturally want to avoid. They both act similarly as buffers.

What is the buffering capacity of LB or SB?

Faster Better Media LLC
LB and SB will maintain the pH near 8 as well or better than TBE and much better than TAE - before, during, and after your electrophoretic run.

The stream is buffering constantly, what should I do?

SnakeNet Metal Radio - Home of the Metal Nation!
Very likely you are experiencing a network problem. Check the Audio Stream Support forum to see if someone else has already reported the problem. If not, try reconnecting after a while and if it still doesn't work, start a new thread with subject that describes your problem (unless someone else has already started one).

Do I have to endure buffering throughout the stream?

EventStreams Streaming Video Questions
No. Our worldwide server network ensures that you will receive a high-quality stream regardless of your location in the U.S, or around the World. We’ve spent more than five years perfecting the streaming process, and the key to our high-quality lies in: our superior streaming network, our extensive technical experience and our creative talent.

Is pH buffering important?

Adventus Group - Environmental Remediation FAQs
Yes. The engineered pH buffering capacity of our products is another key differentiator. Different Adventus products are designed to release alkalinity, acidity, or to maintain a neutral pH. In contrast, the addition of conventional organic substrates only (e.g., emulsified oils, molasses or lactate-based materials) to promote COI biodegradation can lead to aquifer acidification. Result? More costs, uncertainty, delays, and client dissatisfaction. Yes.
