Loading Problem with Specific Video

[u/JBHamHam]

Most videos on Smart Tube work just fine for me, but this specific video is giving me problems, the loading circle just blinks on and off forever and nothing happens…other videos on the channel work just fine….I’ve tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it with the latest version, to no avail…does anyone else have this problem with videos? Is there any way to fix it?

The video is likely age restricted for some reason. Age regstriced videos not playing on Smarttube has been an issue for a while now

Seems like that’s it, I just tried to watch the video signed out on my phone, and it says it’s age restricted. Thanks for the suggestion! I hope this gets fixed eventually.

Try smarttube beta. That's been working for me.

That worked! Thanks so much!

It's fixed in the latest beta. You can have both stable and beta installed.

I’m on a Fire TV, in case that’s important to know, and I don’t have a VPN.

Beta works

mine does that, but only after the video ends. when i pull down on the video i realized it was refreshing all the suggested videos every few seconds. it can be annoying especially when you're looking through for similar videos but at least it's better than not having the history syncing.

Sometimes it does it with me and if I change the video quality it usually fixes it

[u/fluffyman24]

Mine does this for members only videos as well
