I recently noticed that I had to change the audio latency on downloaded videos by -100 to -200ms in order for the sound to sync up properly with the video. I assumed that because I was playing the videos locally it was a problem on my end, but the same thing happens with videos played on the site or on GB's YouTube page.

As a quick example, look at the GB video feature logo at the very start and you'll see that the audio is coming in slightly late.

If I download a video directly through Firefox (or Chrome) then the speed will range from ~200KB/s to ~7MB/s. It can use my full connection speed but it usually doesn't even come close to it and downloads just never finish in the browser.

My connection speed is 50-60Mbps and I don't have any trouble reaching those speeds on other sites, streaming services, Steam, Uplay, whatever.

In order for me to actually finish downloading any videos from GB I need to use an external download manager which instantly uses my full connection and sustains it.

I'm using Firefox 65.0.1, Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.17763 Build 17763, and I live in Australia.

I was wondering about this as well. Thanks for the tip on editing the URL to get the full quality video.

Hey folks, I've noticed for quite a while now that just about every video from the Beast crew has audio pops and other anomalies throughout. I've put together three examples from the first minute of episode one of 'Who's The Big Boss?' to illustrate the issue.

This sort of thing hasn't been prominent in the West coast's videos (maybe due to the type of mics they use or their overall setup) but it's always been immediately obvious to my ears when watching/listening to East coast content.

I'm not sure if this is something the crew is already aware of but I just wanted to get this out there in case it was going under the radar.

Hey, wasn't really sure where to post this but I wanted to bring up something that's been bothering me for a while. Whenever the Beast crew speaks quietly in a video or podcast they are very difficult to hear, sometimes it even sounds like no one is speaking at all. This isn't a problem for the West coast and I never have a problem hearing them even when they speak quietly. For a recent example, in the latest Dept of New Business Abby and Patrick have moments when they are talking softly and it just seems like the mics don't pick them up adequately. On the other hand, Ben who is recording on the West coast, is perfectly clear at all times.

When I watch and listen to GB stuff I use earbuds or headphones and usually boost the sound with additional compression, so I'm already doing what I can to make the quiet parts louder and I still struggle to hear them sometimes.

I use Pocket Casts on Android with the new API key method and sometimes my feed looks like this:

Choosing the wrong one (as far as I can tell they're identical files) will sometimes cause it to not sync properly with the Pocket Casts web player. Is anyone else having this happen?

Same here, I emailed Rorie today but hopefully it gets fixed soon. I want to watch the GB Unplugged! :(

The Up Coming box has been broken on my end for months now. For instance, it's 10:20PM on July 9 here (South Australia) and the Unfinished: Action Henk video should have been out at 9PM according to the Upcoming Box.

Please fix it! Last year it worked fine!

Actually, they still aren't right.
