YouTube Video's pop and crack when playing?

It screams a driver issue. It could just be the videos your watching or a problem on Youtube's end. Check it from a different healthy pc to help with diagnostics.

Hey Sleppie did you ever figure out what was going on? I would like to know what was causing your issue and what you did to fix it.

You might need to update some of your drivers or one might be corrupted. I have not checked but the adds might be using a different driver than the video you was watching. I have had problems with Adobe flash player before so I had to uninstall it then when I downloaded it again from their website the problem went away.

I thought about it. You need to install ad block plus for fire fox and chrome and install easylist for ADP

What ad's are you talking about?
You Tube audio quality will very form user to user. Some people are better at recording vids then others.

Do you have multiple sound cards in the computer? IE an integrated one plus an external one? If so you can try to disable the integrated one and see if that helps.

Not sure the problem, recently when watching Youtube video's the audio pops and cracks. The add's will play fine with No issues at all but once and uploaded video plays I get the pops, cracks and even echo's at times.

Chrome does this worse than IE but I do have issues with IE. Firefox does better but sometimes it does it also just not all the time. Safari doesn't do it at all, Safari plays the same video's without issue!

My audio plays fine on other sites but since Youtube has been upgrading, I have issues on other sites like Yahoo. I can watch video's from other sites with no issues at all but if they're from YT I get the cracks and pops.
DVD's play fine and everything I try plays fine, it just happens with any video from Youtube!

I've checked every thing, and replaced sound drivers or upgraded them, uninstalled Chrome and did a clean install, Active X and Flash Player have all been reinstalled or upgraded. No joy! I even uninstalled IE and did a clean install of that and still got issues. I also upgraded JAVA and still get the annoying pops and cracks!

My internet speed has not changed and I even upgraded that! This only happens with my pc, my laptop and tablets play fine so I suspect an issue with the PC but what the issue is I have no idea. Malware? Rootkit? Virus? I got no idea, as everything I check says the computer is clean. I can say, this all started when Youtube started some upgrades about 3 weeks ago. The add's play fine which seems odd because once an uploaded video starts to play the issues start! That just freaks me out because you would think the adds would crack and pop also!

Any suggestions on playback issues?
