Here's something that I hadn't figured out yet about the steel videos. When you click on a video, sometimes a little circle with dots going in a circle appears and the video stops anywhere from 20 to 30 seconds usually and then starts again. What causes this and is there a solution to correct the problem. It's not on all videos but about 25% to 40% of them it is. Thanks.

The information to play the video has to be loaded into your computer so the player knows what to play. These dots in a circle are telling you that the information is being loaded. The playback stops because the player ran out of information and must wait until more of it is loaded up, so the stars come up again telling you it is again loading information.

To keep this from happening, it's best to stop the playback once you start, and let the information get fully loaded before you begin listening to it again.
The waiting time can vary, but usually a minute or so is good.

Below the video is a little bar that has a red line that moves to the right as the information is being loaded. When it reaches full right, it is fully loaded.
