Pretty neat either way.  😎 😎    Are those headlights that BIG?   Or is this car that small?    😏 😏

@chris So small they cut the top off so Sean Connery could fit in it when Toyota wanted to feature the car in "You Only Live Twice". They only made two of these.

I have these two but in 1:43 scale and love them.  This 1:18 scale shown is stunning!

Great cars!  BTW, and FYI, buffering is back.

This may be one of the last "flawed"  posts from a few days ago, I'm not sure.   🤔

If you are getting intermittent buffering it is not the video, it is the internet connection.

@john3976 - This is really weird.  I just don't think my superfast internet connection is the source.  If it did, then the buffering would occur in all your videos.  Only a select few have the problem.  Most videos are smooth as a baby's behind.  And the ones that experience the problem are consistent and the buffering problem never abates.  

I don't want to belabor the point so this will be my last comment on this topic.  My intention is to be helpful and not annoying.  But, before I "check out," you experimented using another camera (Go Pro) to record your videos, and those worked flawlessly with zero issues.

My comment about the problem is the internet connection was not a stab at anyone, this video (Toyota 2000GT) was done with a GoPro 10, by internet connection it could be the site the video is on, or it could be the users own internet connection. I play the videos without buffering occurring, a couple of times I have had a video stop but I just back it up a few seconds and the video plays the rest of the way with no problem. I have Xfinity Cable Internet 1 Gig service which is actually 1.2 Gig but when checked will run in the high 900 MB range. Somedays it will also fall into the 400 MB range due to high usage of the service in the area. My upload speeds are up to 230 MB. 

Both the Canon 7D and the GoPro 10 make videos in MP4 format so it is not the video format that is the problem. The Canon 7D videos are 1920 x 1080 The GoPro 10 makes the videos in 1920 x 1080. 

The files themselves are not the problem it is the internet connection speeds that are the issue, buffering is due to the download speed can't keep up with the play back of the video, again that can be the site the video is hosted on in this case this site not uploading fast enough, or it could be the users own internet connection not downloading fast enough. 

There was a short period of about a week a short time ago where my 1.2 gig service was only speed testing at 90 MB and even got down to 10 MB but Xfinity corrected the problem on their network and I was back to download speeds in the high 900 MB range. Having said that just because I have fast internet sometimes my download speeds are on the low side simply because of the host site not uploading fast enough. 

This video of the Oldsmobile is the GoPro 10 565.36 MB

This video of the Chevelle is the Canon 7D 758.66 MB

Both are MP4 files and I have posted the file size listed on this site for each video. Let me know if one buffers and if one does not. Neither one of these files buffer when I play them.

@john3976 - No buffering on that really fine 442, but there was buffering on the Chevelle.  

Back to the 442!  I really need to find one on eBay!  What a gorgeous model!

@marty-johnson I will stick with the GoPro 10 for the videos if they are working better for people.

@john3976 -  I'm curious.  Are you sure your ISP is giving you 230 Mb/s upload speeds?  That seems awfully fast for a home computer.  Most home ISP systems are in the 10 to 20 Mb/s range.  You're showing speeds 10 to 20 times faster.
