I've had that problem on some videos, because the "Play" speed is faster than the "Download."

If you just wait until it has completely downloaded and then hit Play again, it should play the clip with out any trouble.

Andy, all of bill,s video,s do this. Blake, i can let it sit for awhile and hit the refresh button and it does the same thing. I,ve tried my wifes computer and it does the same. I,ve cleaned out my programs and checked to see if i might have some other problem but can,t find any.
Thanks for your help

If your download speed is less than the play speed, you will get interruptions. The only thing you can do, is to PAUSE playing until the download bar shows a full download, and play it then.

... that sounds like a problem I had a loooong time ago. I don't know if that helps, but you may need to update your flash.

I can watch a video one day, perfect.
Next day?..Stop-start and I have to put it on pause and wait for the full download. It's a PITA!
