Streaming takes forever to load a movie, even with full connection?

[Coby Dakota Porter]

Even though I have all bars on my xbox, the movies take forever to load?

Welcome to movie fans. You might find an answer to your question in the Instant Watch Help Group. HERE .

Since you posted this in the About Movie forum and the Instant Watch forum is a better fit, I'm moving your discussion there. But the best place to post is in the Instant Watch Help group.

Again, welcome and stick around to discuss movies with us.

How fast is your broadband? Do you have cable, dsl or something else. I have about 15 KBps download speed and I always connect easily!

How slow is forever?

I would guess my XBOX takes 20-30 seconds to start the movie. Somewhere around there.

If you're getting full bars, it wouldn't be a speed issue...might be a delay in connecting to the servers, perhaps.

I'm having the same issue, i thought it was my internet. But i just changed from centrylink 7mps to Comcast 20mps. It fixed my problem with streaming on my bluray player in the bedroom. However even though i have full bars and HD when avaliable, movies or tv shows take 10-15 minutes to start. Going to switch from wireless N to wired connection and see if that fixes the problem

20mps internet

cisco systems wireless DualBand N router

I just did a Speed Test and it said 833 kps.  That's over Comcast cable thru a Netgear Dualband G/N router.  I use my LAN to send the NF signal to a wireless BD player downstairs on the other side of the house and from there to the 1080p screen via a 2 meter HDMI.2 cable.  Takes about 5 seconds for that red bar to load NF product.  May be 10 secs on a holiday or after dinnertime.  I'm East Coast, which seems to have better servers that SoCal - which might be your problem.  I've also heard of slow load times with X Box involved, too.
