mag daily vids not playing

robbies_gal

No, but you are not alone. I know that people will suggest AdBlock plus, but this is no use if you are comping on a work computer in your lunch break and cannot install any software on it. Also, I have sometimes had an Irish advert playing on top of the video and cannot get rid of that.

I had the same problem last night robbies_gal :mad: Absolutely useless on Chrome, but when I switched to IE it seemed to work ok. Did you try on more than one browser?

I get this sometimes as well. You can try pressing the white arrow in the middle of where the video should be if it appears, or refereshing thr page. I always get them to go through in the end, but it can be quite tedious getting there!

The other option I sometimes use is to do them on my phone where no videos appear at all.

Still won't work for me - I've tried Chrome and Internet Explorer, refreshed page, rebooted entire laptop - nothing!

Bang goes my entries for today :mad:

i am getting them to go through by refreshing a few times and confirming form re-submission or going back and clicking 'go for it' again.

i sometimes have this problem but its never been as bad as today, nearly all of them are having this problem

Used to start by refreshing the page a few times if clicking the arrow thing didn't work.

Then logged out and logged back in an redid them- usually that worked okay.

(Haven't had any issues since putting on ad-bloc.)

i tried everything like refreshing and going back a page it was hit and miss

but adblock seems to have done the trick unless it just having a good day

Adblock should just bypass the videos completely. You should just get a black square for about a second, then your entry should be submitted. No need to worry about either sitting through videos, or them not working or whatever.

Just installed Adblock and its taken no time at all to do the mags. Wish I had done it earlier, but the vids didn't really bother me until they stopped working.
