You can also check if buffering is caused by SSL filter in your antivirus software.

  5. On the Certificate screen, choose the Certification Path tab.

  6. If the Certification path starts with the name of your antivirus software (e.g. ESET like in the screenshot), it means that the SSL filter is enabled, which causes player buffering.
