Hi!

I've been having trouble playing web videos, from CNN, New York Times, Washington post. I get a "video error" or a "Video playback error" when I press play.

YouTube is working fine. Is there any fix for the other websites?

Thanks!

Gus

hmm, what browser are you using? give us an address to test.

Safari plays an ad but when the actual video is sposed to start it says "Error" for me on CNN.

CNN (same address) works with Chrome.
