at the start of the month, sky changed (I wont say upgraded) the video player online for sky go.

 

Is anyone else having trouble getting the video content to play?

It won't work for me in Firefox either, I disabled tracking blocking but made no difference. Just get grey box with a circle that goes round without stopping.

 

On Google Chrome browser it is working fine.

 

I went to a flash test site and flash is enabled for Firefox.

Firefox and Chrome are on the same laptop and on same wifi . Chrome works, Firefox doesn't.

I have had issues with this too, I found if I use a VPN NZ connection then it works, If I turn it off and use the Getflix DNS (Which are set correctly and region) then it won't work. I am not too sure what Could be happening with my setup, same with other website that use a mix of HTML5 and Flash. 

 

Something with Getflix perhaps?
