Antisocial Filter blocking NFL video

Post by Iilas »

I am having problems with NFL video playing http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-training- ... ng-control or any video from NFL.com

I troubleshooted by disabling filters, and I narrowed it downed to the "Antisocial" filter. Without antisocial filter the videos plays immediately. With antisocial filter on, it gets stuck at "loading video". Manually updated my filters for firefox, with ABP 2.1.2.

I visited the link you gave and it started playing without issue, this could be due to my location.

Can you please force a subscription update one more time then provide and issue report link if the problem persists (click on the ABP icon and select "report issue on this page").

I updated all my filters manually just now, I am still getting the problems on and off, like this video in my report which eventually played after a while. My filter set is Easy list + easy Privacy, Antisocial, and Malwaredomains. I sent a report, don't know how much it will help though, feels like I am chasing ghosts b/c it isn't easily reproducible on demand.

If you are willing to work with me we should be able to figure it out without too much trouble.

First can you confirm that the problem is still present with only Antisocial active?

Then we can try disabling one by one until the culprit is found, perhaps starting with

Code: Select all

I did as you ask disabling that specific filter. I just went to http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-videos and loaded the the full page of random videos. Still getting the problem of some of the videos staying on "video loading," then eventually loading. An example would be

http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-high ... e-late-hit

I attached another report to for more details on what was being blocked specifically for that video

Restarted my machine and tested the same set of video including the one that hung up consistently before in my last report. It doesn't do that anymore and every other video is now loading consistently. So..shrugs? I also tried the turning off and on that specific filter, and it doesn't seem to make a difference the videos all work correctly.

At this point I think it must have been my computer or network, this is the first time I restarted or shut down the machine in a while, we use the "sleep" option instead of turning off for fast access for everyone in the house. If that is the case, then sorry for leading you on a ghost hunt. My son and I frequent the nfl site often, and we will continue to monitor if anything changes. Thanks

No problem.

I know this things can be hard to track down.

I recently found out that >Do not track< add-on stops some videos from loading on www.nfl.com.

Videos seem to load fine for me, with Adversity and Antisocial subscriptions.
