Video buffering issue

[David McFarlane]

What OS?

Earlier versions of EP2 were known to have problems presenting sound 
& movies under Windows Vista & 7 (e.g., 
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/e-prime/xvCq8uq_T5c , 
http://support.pstnet.com/forum/Topic2760-12-1.aspx , 
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/e-prime/Gg67RCJqqQU), but those 
problems were supposed to have been ironed out by EP2.0.8.90.  In any 
case, you might consider upgrading to EP2.0.10.242, although this may 
affect other experiments (see PST's own warnings).  Or, use Windows 
XP, all of these things seemed to work pretty well under XP.
