[Closed] Media playback was aborted

I was viewing the show Who are you and once I got to ep11-13 the video would stop playing and the message would state media playback was aborted due to corruption problems or because the media use features your browser did not support---I have switched to 2 other browsers and still get the same message-all the other videos I watched in past never did this, is it just that show?

  • This is posted elsewhere with instructions to:

    logout of Viki
    clear cache
    restart browser
    login to Viki
    AND IF THAT FAILS

    try another browser.

    I have done all of these including rebooting my computer.
    The video still crashes. It's done it over 10+ times on my desktop PC.
    This has never happened before and it's totally annoying.

    I would like other suggestions, but preferably, a FIX!

    Regards...

  • Hello both!

    Thank you for writing in and we're sorry you're experiencing issues with the video player. 

    If the issue still persists after clearing cache and restarting your browser, can you please provide the following information?

    • Go to any affected video > video player settings > click 'Report Video Issues' and submit a report. This will allow us to obtain some information on the backend to debug the issue.
    • The browser version and device operating system you're using. You can find this here

    Best,
    Michelle

  • In the meantime, could you let me know:

    • If you have tried watching the same videos on another browser too (eg. Chrome) ? Does the issue occur on those browsers too?
    • Is this the error message you see "The media playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the media used features your browser did not support." ? Do let me know if it's something else.

    Yes, same error message in Chrome.

    Yes, that is the message I received.

  • 1dragonsag2, you're welcome. I switched to Roku. I sent info about Firefox browser, since it's my preferred one but not Chrome. I am dropping it, as I have finished the K-drama I was watching. So far, it has only been restricted to just one and no others but I do have a backup with Roku.
