Download and Stream Online Videos Faster Without Buffering Problems

Do you still use Speedbit Video Accelerator to help you stream youtube and many other video sites faster and smoother? I written that article two years ago and that time they only had one version which is free. Then they came up with a “Premium” paid version of their software which cost $49.90 for a year subscription that allows you to download movies and TV shows faster from iTunes. The free version still allows you to accelerates embedded videos from YouTube and over 150 supported video sites though.

Basically Speedbit Video Accelerator uses multiple connections to download the same video, hence it loads up faster than normal. Speedbit is also the developer of Download Accelerator Plus (DAP) which is known to install spyware during installation. If you don’t have confidence in Speedbit, here’s another alternative called Bywifi to stream online videos with multiple streams.


Bywifi (Video Streaming Downloader) is a free program for downloading, transcoding and accelerating video streaming. It supports downloading, transcoding and P2P accelerating videos from all video websites, such as Youtube, Dailymotion, Metacafe, MySpace, Yahoo, Justin.tv, etc. Lots of advanced network technologies like P2SP (peer-to-server-and-peer), multiple tasks, web sensitive, intelligence caching are used in the software. The bitrate of video streaming is 3-5 times faster with bywifi than without it. Moreover, it can transcode videos into mobile formats for mobile phones and PDA.

All you need to do is just install Bywifi, restart your web browser and it’ll automatically speed up the video streaming whenever you view an online video. If you want to download the video, just move your mouse cursor to the video and a small bywifi toolbar will appear on the screen.

The first button is speedup. You only need to use this button if you’ve turned off automatic speed up. Second button is download where you can manually download the video and save on your hard drive. The third button is for you to transcode. Meaning you can convert the FLV video format to 3GP, MP4, AVI, ASF, MP3 and etc.

I tried timing the amount of time required to fully load a video file from YouTube. When streaming without Bywifi, it took 85 seconds, but with bywifi, it only took 35 seconds! The amount of time required to fully download the video file has been cut down by half. So if you have a crappy ISP that is very unstable and cause you to wait because of buffering, bywifi is your solution. Tested working on my Firefox 3.1 beta 3, Internet Explorer 8 and Google Chrome. Don’t work on Opera.

      I figured out why it wasn’t working in firefox for me. Bywifi adds the following autoconfigure script to firefox’s connection settings: http://localhost:9000/proxy.pac .

      Apparently, admuncher was blocking this script. I had to go into admuncher and under “myfilters” add the URL http://localhost:9000/proxy.pac and set the option “no filtering on this URL”.

      then it was just a matter of restarting firefox and everything worked as expected.

    • Bindegal

      I know DAP, its absolute not as fast than InstantGet, infact InstantGet is 50% faster.
      I have 70/70 Mb broadband and tested those with an clean cashe…
      I took a file on 70 MB and with DAP it took 32 sec.
      And with InstantGet it only took 16 sec.

      So… If you want to buy a download accelerator, now you know what that is the fastets :)

      The latest version for Bywifi Video Streaming Downloader is 1.5.0. This version consists an interesting feature, which is “video dialog leaves webpage”.

      I think that a very interesting function. It is wonderful being able to minimize a browser by displaying only the video screen.

    • Sundar

      Just moving my mouse cursor to the you-tube video, i could not find any small Bywifi toolbar appear on the screen.
      I use Firefox 3.0.9 version.Can u help me to get the toolbar?

    • Jeet

      I use my laptop @ home as well as in my college.
      The college has a http proxy server, and bywifi’s script messes up my connection real good. Is there some way I can use bywifi with a proxy connection?

    • yna

      i wants to know how to do this?

      The problem is all the videos that you see remain on your Computer so sunner o later your Hard Drive gonna be full.

    • Yogesh Shah

      while watching you tube in orkut, it buffers first. once it buffers the full, then it runs smoothly. what to do to see without buffering ? please mail me the solution

    • mal
