    1. Could you give me the source, the series and the episode causing the problem ?
    2. Are you watching the video online or offline ?
    3. If you are watching the video offline, did you download it on the internal memory or a microSD ?
    4. Do you use the internal player or an external player ?

    • Maybe the default quality is too high for the tablet. Open Settings > Source > Choose resolution and thick the checkbox. Now, when you tap an episode to play, a bottom menu will let you choose the quality. Try 360p. If it's working, you can try higher quality until it's not working. Maybe your device can't play 1080p video.
    • If the previous point is not working, try to download an episode. If the file size is in the hundreds of Mb, it should be a valid video. Try to play it offline with your players. If the file size is small, try to open it with a text editor to see what's in it.
    • Maybe your device doesn't have the required codec.
