Hello @deviserops! I wanted to update you on the example you shared. I tested it with the latest version and I don't believe there is an issue with the link. However, while the player was able to download the file, it was unable to play it, which indicates there might be a problem with decoding the file. Could you please provide native logs from your app? Here's a crash from my app: |

Thanks for providing more information! The error message suggests that the encoding you are using is not supported by your device. The video you are trying to play is encoded with H.264 High profile, which is not among the list of standard supported formats for your device. Although some devices may support it, Android does not provide this support by default. Therefore, I would recommend converting the video to the H.264 Standard profile. This should resolve the issue and allow you to play the video on your device. Here are some metadata from your file: |
