Is it just my computer or does every recent video have issues? I tried it on two different browsers and got the same results..

I've played lots of videos on youtube. No problems. One Japanese one didn't load in 15 seconds so I bailed.

You tried "it." Please give some definitions for your "it."

I just realized you said "on the landing page." What page is the landing page?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

I'm sure he means the RC homepage.

What browser/OS are you using? I've tried them in IE11 (W7 & W8.1 Metro), Edge (W10), Chrome, Firebox, Safari (iOS) and Opera representing about 6 different systems... and they're all working fine. Could be a H264 codec issue on your system?

At any rate, they're going up on YouTube as well:

I have the same problem with the RC videos on the homepage. They start out fine and then start pixelating and are unwatchable. Audio is fine.

The youtube links next to the videos work fine however.
I'm using windows 7 and the latest IE.

@KRAZKY Maybe right-click on the video window, go to Settings, and UNCHECK "use hardware acceleration". Otherwise, just use the YouTube links.

Just tried 3 other systems (HP Windows 7 desktop, cheap Chinese Windows 10 tablet, Lenovo Thinkpad Windows 8.1 tablet) and they all worked fine.

I can't play them because they use FLASH and FLASH is not welcome on this system.

That worked perfectly, thanks Daniel. I've never had to do that before...
