iirc, the problem i was having was with playlists, specifically. at the time, i had this giant playlist i was running through, and it just wouldn't stream right.

i'm not actually doing that, anymore; what i was doing when i switched over was watching all of the stanford videos since the beginning, in order.

so, for now, at least, i wonder if i could just try it again in the version of vlc in the image from 2009...
