Facebook videos

2022-02-25 Thread Dennis McClellan via PLUG-discuss
For about the last month I can't get any video to work on Facebook.

I get this message, (Sorry, we're having trouble playing this video. Learn 
More.)

Hitting the Learn More tab brings me to another page that states "I can't view 
or play videos on Facebook.

Restart Browser and computer. Did that

Check internet connection. I have Cox's one-gigabyte connection.

Update browser. Running Firefox 95.1.

Let us know if you're still having issues playing video: I did twice. No 
response.

I have the latest version of Mint (20.3)

This also happens with the Opera browser but not the Chromium browser. I am a 
Firefox lover.

Does anyone else have this issue?
