its caused by buffering,the stream over the internet is slower than the video player is playing so it pauses until the stream catches up.
try it without the splitter.
what speed is your broad band connection?

i need the splitter as i use it for my cable tv aswell as the internet it says 256 on my modem is that the speed of the the broadband ?

if you get your broadband from v/m it should be 10,20,50 mb, try the speed test link this will give you some idea of your download speed,then post back.

10mb, is the speed of download

if the 10mb is the package you are on then the actual speed should be between 9.5 and 10 mb, if that is the case then the broadband is ok and it is your pc that is causing the problem.
is this the pc you posted as having reformatted recently if so was it ok before.
