PinnedThe Secret Setting That Fixes Bilibili Buffering
Bilibili buffering overseas? DNS and VPN tricks are a coin toss, because the real problem is the slow CDN node Bilibili assigns you. Install one extension to lock videos onto the fastest node, plus what to use on Android and TV.

How to Join the Bilibili CDN Speed Test
Step-by-step guide: download CDNSpeedTest (Windows / Mac), pass the network check, log in with a QR code, and send the report so the extension can find the fastest Bilibili servers in your country.

Detecting CDN Failures in a Bilibili Extension and Falling Back to Backup Nodes
How the extension decides a CDN node is really broken: which errors to ignore, how to detect stalls from currentTime and the forward buffer, why it switches once quietly before asking you, and how it avoids bouncing between nodes. Also covers live streams.

Rewriting Bilibili's Stream CDN on the Fly from a Chrome Extension's MAIN World
Bilibili's stream URLs arrive through SSR __playinfo__, the playurl API, segment requests and the live API. Using bilibili-cdn-switcher's code, this walks through hooking each path, what gets rewritten, and the traps: one-shot Response bodies, read-only XHR responseText, and speed tests that must bypass your own hooks.

How Crowdsourced Speed Tests Keep Improving Bilibili CDN Server Picks
How a Windows speed test app benchmarks 299 Bilibili nodes in people's homes, picks the 10 most stable with layered videos and a three-stage funnel, writes them into the extension on the spot, and sends reports back so each country's default nodes improve by market-share-weighted coverage and missing ISPs get recruited.

How to Actually Fix Bilibili Buffering for Good
Why popular Bilibili videos play fine overseas while unpopular ones stall: CDN caching and trips back to origin, why the narrowest link sets your speed, why DNS and VPN tricks are hit or miss, and how my extension picks a default node from real tests across 14 Taiwanese ISPs.
