    Downloading is very slow. 2 hours for a movie

    I am seeing very slow downloading. There is no way I'd ever come close to the daily limits. I set up a list to download on Friday evening at about 7:00 from Netflix. I closed everything except StreamFab and left it to run over the weekend. When I checked at 9:00 Monday morning, only 37 movies had been downloaded.

    The download is basically taking the same amount of time as watching the movie (meaning a 2 hour movie, takes 2 hours to download). I don't see how this can be correct since allegedly I can download 100 videos per day on Netflix. Same results with Amazon and Hulu.

    What you describe sounds very unusual. Where are you located (country, region)? Are you using a VPN? If needed, do you know how to run a traceroute (tracert)? In general StreamFab has little direct effect on Internet speeds. With all three of the streamers you mentioned suffering I'd look to either Internet provider throttling or a network problem closer to home.

    In any event, the StreamFab Staff will need you to post your StreamFab.log found in your logs directory.

      I am in the US. I do not know how to run a traceroute, but am tech-savvy, so can learn When I try to attach the file at C:\DVDFab\StreamFab\Log, I get an error telling me the file exceeds the size. It's 16MB. I am linking to a copy of the file on OneDrive

        While observing the progress of a download, it looks like the actual download may be ok, but the Processing and Remuxing are the slow part. Is there a way to speed that up?
