The Buffy video seems to freeze/cut out/crash after a few minutes of playing, what can I do to see the full 25 minutes?


OK, it has been pointed out to me many times that the Buffy video has a glitch in it. Depending on how picky your media player is, this glitch may cause the video to crash.

BUT! There is a way around the glitch.

All you need to do is reload the video after it crashes and use the 'slider bar' to move the video just past the point at which it crashes. So, if your player crashes after say 5 minutes and 32 seconds of the video then move the slider to 6 minutes, and it should play the rest of the video fine.

Depending on what media player you're using, the slider looks something like the two images below. Just click on the slider (circled in red) and drag it along until it's past the glitch point.

 

Windows Media Player Basic (mplayer2.exe)
