Java 8 leads to issues with video playback.
Java 8 leads to issues with video playback.
Hello and thanks for checking out my update! I’m facing some odd issues with Java 8 Update 341. It seems the videos on YouTube load very slowly, even when I pause and resume. This isn’t just normal buffering or caching—it’s happening regardless of whether Java is installed. The issue disappears completely once I uninstall Java and restart my PC, not after installation. I’ve tried adjusting Java settings, testing with different browsers like Chrome and Edge, but nothing seems to work. I’m planning to update Windows after reading this and will let you know if it helps. Since this appears to be a software problem, I won’t share the full technical details right now. My current setup: Chrome 105.0.5195.125, Windows 11 Home, 21H2, 22,000 MB RAM, 3600 GTX 1070, 8 GB DDR4.
