Some videos fail to play

[vecnar]

Hello, I am not sure if it is a generic problem or just me user specific so please excuse me if it is not appropriate here.

Recently started to see quiet a few videos not opening and thought to check if they are playable online through liveleak website or youtube and they are. Error is "HTTP returned error 503" so not sure if it is something to do with youtube config on my computers using google project on account and using api key or is it just maintenance on servers on google. Tried to access from different public ip addresses but it didn't help. Opening long https url in browser shows video player but it doesn't play. I am running it on windows 7 and kodi 18.4 2020-11-21 23:00:09.467 T:5524 NOTICE: Starting Kodi (18.4 Git:20190831-3ade758ceb).

Let me know if i can do any tests if that helps.

Thank you

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to report this. Unfortunately though, a HTTP 503 error is a server-side error, and so there would be nothing I can do about it.

Thank you for letting me know.
