B Strings 2016 Videos: Unwatchable & Unresponsive

[William Nelso]

Is it just me or are the videos at Strings 2016 unwatchable? They start and stop and continually seem to buffer, as if the bandwidth is not sufficient. The organizers did not respond to my email. I don't see a way to download and view offline, and I can't tell anything about the streams, e.g. what is the encoding or bit rate.

Can you link to the video?

Ok, it may be slightly better now, but it still doesn't work. The videos just constantly buffer and are not watchable.
