Common Symptoms

You may be experiencing one or more of the following issues:

  • The video player displays a blank screen or a loading spinner that never disappears.
  • The video thumbnail is visible, but clicking Play does nothing.
  • The video starts playing but immediately stops or buffers continuously.
  • An error message appears where the video should be displayed.
  • The video plays on some devices but not on others.

Try These Steps First

Please try the following troubleshooting steps in order. Many video playback issues can be resolved using one of these methods.

1. Try a Different Browser or Device

Open the same page in a different browser (such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge) or on another device.

If the video plays successfully, the issue is likely related to your original browser or device settings.

2. Try Incognito / Private Browsing Mode

Open your browser in Incognito or Private Browsing mode and visit the same page.

Note: If the video plays correctly in Incognito Mode or a different browser, a browser extension or cached data may be causing the issue. Please continue with the following troubleshooting steps.

3. Clear Your Browser Cache and Cookies

Outdated or corrupted cache files can prevent videos from loading properly.

Clear your browser's cache and cookies from the browser settings, then reload the page and try playing the video again.

4. Disable Ad Blockers and Browser Extensions

Some ad blockers and browser extensions can interfere with video playback.

Temporarily disable any extensions, reload the page, and check whether the video plays correctly.

If you've completed all of the steps above and the issue still occurs, please contact our support team.

  • The URL of the page where the video is not playing.
  • Any error messages displayed on the screen (a screenshot is appreciated if possible).
