No respite in Video playback error still!

Post by saurabhdua »

Hello Folks!

Despite using the Latest version of Slimjet aka Version 12.0.8.0 (based on Chromium 53.0.2785.89) on my Win 10, 64-bit OS edition, no respite is getting evident towards the enclosed Video playback error!

The Error is quite frequent in its appearance , & lingers on for subsequent Page refresh commands as well!

We were told for the Latest release that the issue has been rather FIXED? !

Please suggest!? :roll:

This may not be a Slimjet issue, rather a problem with your ISP or YouTube itself.

Give it a few more days and if the problem is persistent come back and say so, then perhaps we explore the ISP angle after that.

Also, very important. Copy the YouTube links that are giving you trouble and put them here so others can try them. If we cannot got to the same URL at YouTube which gives you trouble we will have great difficulty attempting to resolve by the same experience of it.

hello,

i have a similar issue, not on youtube, but rather on twitch.tv. After a while of watching and switching to other streams on twitch while everything is working fine, suddenly my video playback stops working . The message i get is: "media resource not supported". I tried looking into the issue but all i could find is that my audio codec apparently cannot decode the audio stream on every stream i try it on. After completely closing and restarting slimjet the issue is resolved though. I have no idea how to reproduce the issue though, it seems kind of random to me. My flash player is disabled and im using the html5 version of twitch.

any thoughts?

greets o/

In which case, try it with the extension disabled
