Video Playback Issue (lags)

Hello everyone,
I have recently been experiencing issues with video playback, whether it's online (YouTube) or on my VLC player (for mkv, avi, or mp4 movies). There's a significant delay before the video starts (sometimes YouTube shows me "if the problem persists, restart your device") then it launches normally, but when I try to fast forward, I'm back to waiting for long minutes. At times, I would even say it doesn't start at all, or I lose patience too quickly.
It's worth noting that I don't have any latency on the internet or lag while browsing on my PC.
I've tried:
- looking on forums
- I reinstalled my graphics drivers, Flash Player, and VLC (latest version for all)
- I did a malware/virus scan with Malwarebytes and cleaned up with CCleaner
- I performed a DELL maintenance (all clear)
So I'm turning to you for help to illuminate my shortcomings.
My PC: Running Windows 8, 4 GB RAM, Intel Pentium CPU G3240 3.10 GHz x 2
Thank you to those who take the time to help me
Best regards
Matt

I hope this answer reassures you; if not, at least it satisfies you.
I was aware of that, except that: The streaming download (gray bar) happens quickly (it's the playback that freezes) and another point, this also happens with my offline videos that I've already downloaded ;).
