didn't know where to put this, so I decided to put it here. Anyone else having issues watching videos on a regular basis on The Escapist? It's starting to really annoy me (ok it goes a bit farther than that, but I'm gonna keep it clean). And it's only on the Escapist, not any other video sites.....

Is it saying that the stream isn't found, or something similar?

Because that means that there are server issues, (I believe so, anyway. If I'm wrong, someone correct me). It has been happening more frequently as of late, but it's nothing really to worry about.

Could just the site itself. It's been acting kind of weird randomly over the past month, crashing out for short periods.

those things were true, was just kindof looking for someone official (no offense to you) to publically address this. If they did in another place, could someone link that place and I will apologize.

Is your issue fixed now? :)

So far, haven't had any issues with the videos, but it might decide to tell me no in a very complicated way again. a couple of days ago I was having the same issue, and I just wrote it off as maintence, but I dunno....

On a similar topic, I seem to getting a weird green line straight through all the videos I play here and elsewhere and image is doubled top and bottom with the bottom image looking like it's trying to be 3d or something..... It's rather bizarre.
I've only recently had this happen and I don't get why, as my laptop is totally up-to-date.

Sometimes I can't get the videos in either flash or HTML 5 to work, so I have a tendency to switch back and forth.

Cheshire, you can check to see if it's flash by switching over to a single video in HTML 5. If the line goes away, it's a flash problem(probably) if not then it's some other issue.
