dirt on dirt constant buffering

**lokwaidid** · 02-07-2021, 03:44 PM

i know its been posted before but i can't find it. i have dirt on dirt and floracing. floracing's videos are great. never any buffering from start to finish. dirt on dirt spends more time buffering than showing the video. same pc. i'm only running one video at a time. you tube or anything else i do works. does anyone have any suggestions to make it work?

When I switched to Chrome, it got much better.

Internet issue.

I had better luck with Chrome also

Everyone says it�s a internet issue but LORacing had a horrible picture almost all the time and DirtVision is perfect in HD.

TUTY, the issue here is buffering, not quality of video. For me at least, picture quality is the same across all platforms (Flo, LORTV, DV). I also don't experience buffering issues across any platform unless the broadcaster themselves are experiencing technical issues. I do have an issue with the Flo app on Firestick, it will randomly crash so I have to restart it. DV the other day during the WoO sprint car race had issues during the heats where it would just stop, picking up a couple of laps later. This was confirmed by a friend who was also watching at the time.

Try clearing the cache on whatever device you are using.

Last night I started the stream with Chrome Book(few years old) picture was buffering and pausing. Switched to iPhone with lightening hdmi to tv. Worked great.

Theres a webpage that gives about 10 steps to help with Firestick issues. I have used each one and it has literally stopped 90% of my issues.

I think most can be fixed by restarting router, then Firestick, and then clearing cache and closing all background apps! it has worked wonders for me!

On that note, what streaming device works best for you guys?

Or should i invest in a smart tv?

I usually have the opposite problem. Flo buffers or stops altogether while DoD runs flawless. I've had Flo cut out on me with a few laps to go to miss the finish. I'm running it through the app where as DoD I run it through their web page.

If you have a subscription to DoD do you automatically have flo racing?

If it�s a yearly sub, yeah. Price went up to 150 though.

Mr. Bayko I have the yearly subscription but, I tried to sign in with my DoD info and it once me to setup a new account. I guess I need to do that then.

Thanks for the info!

**Josh Bayko** · 02-09-2021, 06:15 PM

Yeah, it�ll have a thing mentioning DoD IIRC.

I have been using my fire stick with flo, haven't had many issues. With DIRTVision I usually just connect my laptop/hdmi cable
