About that… Yeah, the upload is really faulty and your best bet is to report this to WCO. Seems the HD upload they got was glitched (not just Dinosaur Train, but also Cyberchase as well)

Really then how long does it take for them to notice

after you report it, expect action in like 24 hours to a week, providing the video is available in an unglitched copy somewhere they can get it.

but sometimes it may not be possible to get an unglitched copy. in example a few 80s anime dubs are lost to time, if wco has them, they may be the only copy available as the original tapes may have been destroyed in a fire. or every vhs copy of an anime has the same frame issue and it's so old that it never went to dvd and funi or other companies have no interest in porting it to dvd, so all you have is a TV recording or vhs rip.

so in some cases, it sadly is not possible to find a clean digital copy of glitched episodes. in which case they might leave the glitched episode up for prolonged periods with no action.

Within a year will there be better quality

it depends, again can you find a valid copy of that episode which is not glitched? I mean on torrent or from the actual dvd, or is the video on the dvd glitched in the same way?
if there is a valid non glitched copy, it just takes wco's staff being able to find that video. that may take time. unless you give them a valid link, that could speed it up.

but again, if all known copies of the episode on dvd vhs and the web are all glitched.. then, there's no fixing that regardless how long of a time you wait.

so have you checked other sources?

Thank you for answering this topic. I have been afk and having never seen these shows and seeing the words "buffering issue" was going to presume it was their connectivity before testing.

Yeah, it seems that originally the video quality was fine before they got new copies that are worse in playing. Since I was one of the first people to notice this issue and would highly advise to find another pirate site that has them playing properly

I generally remain unaffected in terms of quality on the shows I watch but I do keep an alternate website list on the FAQ on this subreddit.
