Is anyone else having this problem watching 4OD?

The programme plays fine, but some of the ads buffer like hell, meaning that a 30 second ad takes 10 minutes or more to play through. And of course you can't skip them. Most infuriatingly it often seems to happen on the second ad in the ad break. This is on a PC with i3 / Win7 64bit and BT Infinity and it's the same on Firefox and IE.

Yes, had this problem and also one where the video froze immediately after the ads, and another where the ads looped forever, never actually resuming the programme. Bag o' ste.

The adverts on ITVplayer have pissed me off so much I never use it now. If it's not on BBCplayer or free on some vid site (youtube adverts are annoying) I don't watch itbiggrin
