Every episode of Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu freezes between 2-7 seconds off the start. Also freezes again around 6-7 minutes into each episode, again around 15-16 minutes, and once more around 19-20 minutes. Each time the video freezes in the beginning and I pause to allow the video to load, the load bar does disappear once I unpause.
I want to add, that my issue is the same as 'midnightgrafton' at 6-7, then again at 15-16, then again at 19-20 it freezes and restarts. Also forgot to note in my post Windows 7 Pro 64, and Elite Subscriber.
Please fix this issue soon , I want to keep paying to watch from the site, however I fail to see a point when it messes up on every episode of every show I have watched so far.
P.S. It also does this when watching on the Android App.
Also constant freezing of the player trying to watch any episode of OniAi. Every time it will freeze at the 4 second mark where it is the media factory logo. It will also from there continue stopping and I will have to pause and play it again or refresh the page to get the video to play back. I will also get Timed Out errors connecting to the server message when trying to load almost any episode of various shows, examples are this one and Black Lagoon.

I am using the latest version of Chrome and Firefox with the same issues. This seems to be happening for months and is inexcusable when I am able to stream to my hearts content on ANY other website at 1080p without a hickup. If this is the "host issue" why hasn't the site migrated to a new host that is capable of handling the traffic and streams properly. We are paying for a dis-service and also Funimation is paying for a service for which they are not receiving the quality that they should and thus throwing money down the drain all around.
Also the forum is horrendously slow to load and I get broken image icons for every button on replys underneath the "Smileys" options. "Web site update" has been talked about since I saw Sophie posting on the boards and that was a long while back without much noticeable improvement on my end. I have continued to support the site throughout all these issues and the downtime that we all experienced recently where we, the paying subscribers, were unable to watch any content and only receiving a black EVS player.
Please, PLEASE fix this soon as I do not see a point in continuing to pay for something that causes such frustration. I should not have to keep pausing a video over and over and restarting it to be able to watch it when my system or connection are not at fault and do not encounter this issue on ANY other website, free or paid, with such consistency.
Unable to view any video without pauses, takes about 8 minutes to watch 5 minutes of video in HD and about 7 minutes to watch SD video. Sadly this will likely end my Elite subscription even though I'm happy with the content.My Speed Test Results which summarized are 43 meg down by 19 meg up.

it seems this problem is going on for tooooooo long now
it just loads a bit but when you play it and it gets about half way it continues but without the sound and you have to let it keep loading
My browser is Chrome and my score was 21.58. I usually only get the pause when the video first starts..but tonight while watching Black Butler episode 30 it was pausing every few seconds through the entire episode. I also pay for a membership but only because I can get more episodes here than on Netflix which I do not have any issue with. Can we fix please

Intermittently, but about every 30 seconds or so the video would self pause. My internet may not be the best, but I NEVER have this problem with other video players unless I'm simultaneously downloading other things, which I do not do when watching the Funimation videos.
I do not know what the problem is, but I would like it to be known that I was planning to keep my Elite Membership, but this problem is causing me to seriously reconsider. The video player causes me an immense headache when all I want to do is relax and watch some anime, preferably with as little buffering as possible. If it's a problem with the player... please find another one that pre buffers. Anything is preferable to the load bar going up, then back to the play bar, then up, and then back to the play bar. It's highly annoying and very counter intuitive.
Thank you for listening to my complaint. I love Funimation, I really do, and I would like to support this company. However, unless this problem is addressed somehow, I doubt I will remain a member for longer than a month or so until I get fed up with this and cancel.
