As they say, you’re SOL. Either get a better device or get better internet or lower your quality. Some things are just out of the hands of Plex.

I’m usually the one complaining about Plex, so it’s really weird that I’m defending them on this. Maybe it’s because, like I said before, this is not a Plex problem.

So you _are_ saying that 1+ Gbps internet and a 14th Gen Intel and 64 GB is considered insufficient in your world for watching Plex. So, this feature request doesn’t apply to you at all, but it does apply to the vast majority of Plex Web users who use it either by choice or circumstance. (I have at least two regular users on my Plex server who use Plex Web with Tampermonkey to customize their interface, for instance.)

You’ve moved the goal post several times already and I overlooked it, so I’m done.

It is worth noting this has been a feature request since 2012. [[Very Popular] myPlex: buffer content Youtube-style](https://forums.plex.tv/t/very-popular-myplex-buffer-content-youtube-style/20601)
