Any time I watch a video streamed online, the audio quickly goes out of synch with the video itself. I'm not entirely sure why. It does it on all video players I use, and it's very irritating. Anybody know what it could be caused by?

Slow computer, slow graphics card, slow internet connection, those are all the most common/obvious reasons.
Could be a poorly configured codec, but I find that highly unlikely.
Go install CCCP and see if anything changes.
Or you could right click on the video and increase the amount of space that Flash is allowed to use on your computer, but that probably won't fix it.
More likely than not, it's your internet connection.

Probably, whats CCCP?
I dont think it is my internet though, seeing as it's only recently started doing it and my internet hasn't changed in the past week or so since it's been doing it.
K fixed it simply by changing the USB port where my internet aerial is plugged into...dont know how that worked out.

The computer probably set the USB adapter into some kind of power saving mode (as Vista will often do with USB devices that have been idle for a while). Check your power settings and make sure that the computer won't do anything to the USB ports.

Well it's a hub that's pugged into the computer so I'd have thought if it went idle, the whole thing would have but I just moved it along one and it worked fine.

Don't plug it into a hub. That'll slow down the connection too. Since there's just one more thing between you and the internet, it'll slow things down due to latency.
[EDIT] CCCP = Combined Community Codec Pack. It basically allows you to play any video file ever in any media player that utilizes codecs installed on your PC. Like Windows Media Player, and many others.

I used to have that problem on my old computer, and the reason was a shiz graphics card.
On this computer, whenever I play things in VLC, when I pause it the video keeps going a few seconds. When I press play, the audio starts and the video waits a few seconds before starting.

Yeah, I had the same problem on my old Dell when I tried to play high-def video. But then I built my custom PC. :D
As for your problem with VLC, PDM, I have no clue. Could be outdated video drivers, could be an old version of VLC, could be audio drivers.
Since VLC uses integrated codecs, then downloading CCCP obviously won't fix the problem. Getting the latest version of VLC could though, but that still might not be the problem.

I'm not too worried about it, but thanks.
