Hello again,
currently downloading some tutorials and presentations from youtube.
Started with a fresh session... actually its only 1 file at a time.
I noticed that the download is very slow?! The kB/MB are raising... but not really constantly... looks choppy, like it loads in intervals...
Hard to describe in english;-)

here an example link. http://getk2.org/documentation/videos/item/141-advanced-k2-leverage-the-power-of-joomla-and-k2
I browsed to youtube and selected the 480px version.
Hmmm - the only two things that could affect the download are your network connect, or the amount of RAM Videobox has available... It's unfortunately not something Videobox can help with, sorry...
Videobox *has* to download the file, yes. There's no way it can convert a file remotely, i.e. on the server. Now, Videobox uses the same mechanism as your browser to download files - no voodoo going on there. So that's why I said Videobox can't be responsible for the download speed: it just asks your Mac to download the file. To be honest, I'm not quite sure why it took 7 minutes to download that Youtube movie... Or maybe it took 7 minutes to download *and* convert it? The process is a two step process: first download the original file, then convert it - the progress bar changes color to reflect this: blue while downloading, purple while converting... Conversion will *definitely* be linked to the amount of RAM installed on your computer, and the settings you use could make the process longer too.
