VLC question

[Tr1cK]

How can I enable buffering over a network the same as in WMP?

I experience some pauses due to a less than optimal wireless connection to my router. When I buffer with WMP, I don't get any pauses. I'd rather use VLC though due to it's compatibility.

If you get some stuttering during playback, you can try to increase the size of the read buffer. This can be done in the Open Network Stream dialog box, by selecting the Caching box. You can then choose the amount time (in milliseconds) VLC should store data in its buffer before starting playback.

google is my friend. you should make it yours. :D

I knew about that, but the settings don't stick and you have to go through that crap every time you open a network stream. All my stuff is on a networked drive, so I need it as a default.
