Run some traceroutes to the destination, to make sure there isn't a
problem between you.
Why do you think some bus speed is involved? Playing video is very
CPU intensive, not memory or i/o intensive.
My MDD 1.25 and Cube have the exact same CCC'd system so I thought
because the Cube Bus is 100 and the MDD is 167 this is the only
difference in the machines the Cubes video card is GeForce 3.
Also one of My TiBooks 867 is 133 bus and iChat is better than the
Cube but not as good as the G4 MDD or the G5 PowerMac so the faster
processors only seem to do well on the faster Bus for the streaming
AV?
Ok. Run Activity Monitor and watch the paging and i/o rates.

Are you having playing other videos?
DVD's play perfect. The iChat and Skype is all I'm bothered with.
DVDs playing fine means that your CPU, GPU, memory bus speed, and
disk i/o speed are fine.
Can you play streamed videos from sites such as hulu?
Again - try Yahoo! Messenger's video. I suggest this because if it
works ok then the problem is not your basic network connectivity etc.
