wii - internet channel issue

[Hayds510]

I noticed that the internet channel is free now so last night i downloaded it and have tried to watch videos on youtube XL. My issue is that it wont load an entire video in one hit, it will only load so much of the video from whichever point i had it paused. if i press play and let it run through the video, say for example i watch it through about 10 seconds of the load bars length then pause it, it will only load an extra 10 seconds to the load bar.

its only storing sections of loaded data at a time and because of this i am incapable of watching full videos as my internet isn't fast enough to watch a video as it loads. if i load 20 seconds of a video, and watch that 20 seconds, by the time i reach the end of it only another 5 seconds or so would have loaded. remember that it can only store so much at a time so if i let it run through the entire video to try and load everything before watching it, everything at the start gets un-loaded.

what i'd like to know is -
is it possible to fix it so that i can load an entire video before watching it?
or even just be able to store more temporary memory than what its currently doing.. if i watch a 5 minute video i need at least a 3 minute headstart or ill catchup to the end of whats been loaded before the videos over.

also - i read that the Opera web browser system the internet channel uses has been upgraded or something so that its capable of supporting java and that the flash player has been upgraded to flash lite 3.1 which ''corresponds to flash player 8 with features of 9'' however I've had trouble watching videos elsewhere such as newgrounds where its all flash content. it wont display them at all..


thanks to anybody who has info on these matters

It's because there is very little memory available on the Wii.

will putting in an SD card or anything like that increase the virtual memory or does it store it in a seperate reserve where it cant be expanded ?
