Problem with floatplane, been having it for over a week. no resolves yet.

[ANNIHILATOR284]

Hi,

 

I am not sure if this is the right place to put it but i feel the 'report an issue' option on floatplane isn't doing much good. anyways i've been trying to watch videos for over a week but am unable to. while trying to download the videos my speeds don't go over 24kbps and buffering is the same story. i have 100 UP 100 DOWN connection here so the internet connectivity isn't an issue at all. streaming was perfectly fine until a week ago but ever since then it's been horrendously slow. i put the videos to download on my way to work every morning and by the time i'm back in the evening they're almost done unless the download gets cut in between which usually happens. 

 

Has anyone else been facing this issue? i've been reporting it for over a week but i feel like my words aren't being heard. has anyone got any solutions to this? this problem has been going on all the videos not just one.

 

I've tried both the downloading methods and all resolutions. i've attached screen shots below for reference.

If you have been billed for access to the floatplane club, but have lost access to the videos subforum, please visit https://linustechtips.com/main/floatplane_resync.php. This script will fix the most common issues, so you should regain access within about 10 minutes.

If you use it, please post in this topic (including whether it appears to have worked) so that I can track how frequently it occurs and whether the script is working correctly.

What if you try using a VPN to get around throttling?

 

some ISPs shape incoming videos and streams from known video hosts, 

 

Make sure that you report the issue in the playback issues form, and Luke can get the team to look into it

 

@CatBoiler might also be able to suggest ideas on a resolution

 

lots of people have reported issues with your ISP and youtube in the past, so this *could* be related

It might still be ISP. I had also 100/100 connection but I couldn't watch streamed videos at all from Floatplane. Downloads worked and I could stream with mobile data just fine. Same with 2 other connections including one I'm with now.
