1. Video stops playing and skips to the end:
• This happens when there is an unstable connection between your computer/network and the server you are streaming from. For now, you will need to optimize your network performance in order to prevent this from happening.
2. Inaccurate Inbox count
• This is sort of a random error that happens. It might happen when mass deleting, sending and/or receiving a lot of messages.
3. Computers with AMD processors having distortion in playback when viewing videos at 1080p. You can currently work around this by disabling Hardware Acceleration in Flash, or by viewing at a lower resolution.
4. The video just stops in the middle of playing & does not restart. This again is a connection issue. Refreshing the page or skipping back a few seconds will restart the video.
