I am experiencing “buffering” when watching VUDU movies?
VUDU movies are delivered over your Internet connection. As such, they can
be subject to fluctuations in your Internet connection at your Internet Service
Provider (ISP) and within your home network. If you experience buffering:
How fast is your Internet connection?
Watching movies on VUDU requires a broadband Internet connection of at
least 1 Mbps. As the resolution of the movie increases, so does the bandwidth
necessary to support it. For example, if you try to watch 1080p HDX on a 4
Mbps Internet connection, you will experience frequent buffering, because
your connection is not sufficient to support 1080p streaming. Please see the
bandwidth (i.e. speed) requirements below.
