    Tubi Slow downloads

    As mentioned here, it was suggested if having slow download issues with Tubi, to make a new post.
    How many others have or are experiencing this? The only thing I can question, if not many have the issue, is location. Although it's most times a good location in Northeast USA.
    It's Xfinity, the only Internet provider available, it's a 1Gig connection and Amazon comes down, most times, so fast I can't time it. Peacock and Netflix times are extremely good too.
    So It could be location + Tubi then I guess? I also noticed for a long time when I tried Roku Channel that also came slow, so slow to the point I have not used it lately.
    I don't use Tubi a lot and can check www.justwatch.com for other ways or even use other means to get content
    Mainly curious as to if others have it and if not could it just be location or is it a tubi + SF issue?

    Not a fair or direct comparison, as cleverget is called a screen recorder, but even at that it's much faster.

    I feel no logs are needed as I get no errors. Settings are set at default in SF when using Tubi, what settings we even have for Tubi.
    What a waste of time, streamfab so-called support.

    Tubi is a lot slower than it was before "the failure problem when downloading videos from Tubi" was resolved in 6.1,9.9 for me too. Just Tubi, others are all the same as they were.

    6.1.9.9
    Windows 11 23H2 OS Build 22631.4169
    Comcast/Xfinity Seattle WA

    IPv6 2606:4700:4700::1111 primary 2606:4700:4700::1001 secondary​​​

      Many providers are slow in SF when more than a thousand segments are downloaded.

      With Tubi (which I can only use with vpn) the video was in the MB/s range
      but audio (with twice as many segments) was in the kB/s range.
      The manual download is much faster, if only because each segment is
      downloaded one after the other - manually I download 5-15 at a time.

      Not quite as bad but same cause at Roku:

        Was not ever as slow here in Washington State USA as it is now.

        I even tested on a show with only 521 segments that I had previously downloaded and it definitely seems a lot slower.

        Speed could be the best possible that it can be at this point in time. But it most definitely is slower for me than it used to be.

          Yes, it's also much slower for me now ...
          ... but not because of the SF change, but because of the Tubi change.

          Or why do you think it stopped working before?

          SF is not a WayBackMachine

            Like I wrote: "Speed could be the best possible that it can be at this point in time."

            No idea how why you would bring up time travel.

            I was just agreeing with Stan001​ that it is slower now.

            Perhaps the Streamfab developer can speed it up a bit or not. dunno

            At this point I should probably mention that, of course, slower is better than not working at all.

              Because it's slower after changes at tubi site​

              Another example: Joyn in Germany without VPN (!)

                Yes, it definitely is slower.

                Perhaps sometime in the near future the Streamfab developer can do something on their end to speed it up a bit or not. dunno

                From what I have experienced just by having to do clean installs instead of using the builtin updater I personally, YMMV, have my doubts that there is not at least the tiniest possibility of improvement on Streamfab's end. Just my opinion.

                Yes, as all should already know/realize, the more segments the longer it takes to download. Amount of data being downloaded matters.

                  I guess it could possibly be because of the changes in Tubi itself, as yes that's when the speed decreased so much, I would say too that before those changes SF downloaded at a very reasonable speed.
                  I can easily just either use cleveget as the speed there was not effected by the change although the change did stop cleverget from getting from Tubi until they released a patch or I can use other methods to true download from Tubi or different sites or methods to get same or simular content.
                  The main point was to see if it affected other SF users and seems it has affected at least some.
                  It would be nice, if there is a way to speed it up, for SF to try, but that's up to SF.
                  As my knowledge now of different methods grows, if it is SF, I at some point will find a way to get something, if I need it.
                  What a waste of time, streamfab so-called support.
