There are some settings adjustments here:

http://forum.wiziwig.eu/threads/81008-Week-13-NCAA-Men-s-Basketball-2012...

1st, Open VLC 2.0.5. Go to Tools > Preferences

Select the radio button "Show Settings" - All (near the bottom)

Select input/codecs.

Scroll down to advanced, and change the value for Network Caching to 5000 (ms).

This helps to prevent dropped frames and provides a more stable stream.

 

Also you probably need a pretty fast internet connection.
