Using IE 11 / Win 10, no CNN videos

Post by MountainSide »

Using most recent version of ABP as of today. Have added CNN.com domain to ABP listing, have also disabled ABP on CNN.com. Videos still do not play. If I disable ABP "everywhere: vids play. Shockwave Flash is enabled in IE 11. This problem is only with IE, Chrome does not have this problem and all vids play correctly. Has anyone solved this issue?

Hi Mapx...appreciate you looking into this. I'm running version 1.5 of ABP, version 11.103.10586 of MS IE and version 1511 of Win 10 on a 64 bit system with 16Gb of ram. The only time CNN vids work correctly, is when I disable ABP in the IE add-ons. I've tried disabling all IE add-ons and adding them back one at a time. As soon as ABP is added, CNN vids no longer work. The only thing that I see is the red Adobe box spinning around in the center of the vid frame. I have tried Flash both with "enable hardware acceleration" on and off, have tried increasing "local storage" in Flash up to 10Mb...no change. As soon as I lick on the ABP stop sign icon and hit "disable everywhere", CNN vids start to work again. I really, really like ABP but CNN is my primary news site and really hope that with your help we can find a solution to this.

CNN video work on my IE11 but need patience to see the entire video. So, it is probably speed of internet issue and not ABP.

Very odd. When I go to that CNN link, all that I get is the Adobe red box tumbling. Don't think its a internet speed issue, I'm running Comcast at a Speedtest.net download speed of a consistent 100Mbs. I'm thinking, at this point, maybe it's a Win 10 thing? Pretty much at a loss now...latest operating system, latest ABP version, latest IE version. So what is the difference between Chrome and IE with ABP?

Those videos don't work for me either. I'm on Windows 10 Pro, ABP 1.5, IE11.
