Hi there! I understand that the videos in your NewsBreak app stopped playing, but the text content is still visible. Let's try to get this sorted out for you.
Since you're using a Windows system with WebKit, could you please confirm if this is happening on the NewsBreak website accessed through a browser, or is this within an app environment on your Windows device? Also, have you noticed any particular error messages or is the video area just blank?
In the meantime, here are some general steps we can try to troubleshoot video playback issues:
1. Check your Internet Connection: Since videos require a stable connection, make sure your network is working well. Try switching from Wi-Fi to a wired connection or vice versa, or try a different network if possible.
2. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies: Sometimes cached data can cause playback issues. In your WebKit browser settings, clear the cache and cookies, then reload the NewsBreak page.
3. Update Your Browser: Ensure your WebKit browser version is up to date. Sometimes older browser versions have trouble handling video streams.
4. Check Browser Permissions: Make sure the website is allowed to play videos and access media in your browser settings.
5. Disable any Browser Extensions: Some extensions may interfere with video playback. Temporarily disable them to test.
6. Restart your Computer: A simple reboot can often fix temporary glitches affecting video playback.
Have you tried any of these steps already? If so, please let me know which ones, and we can go deeper. Also, are you able to play videos on other sites normally, or is the issue only with NewsBreak?
Looking forward to your response to help you get those videos playing again!
