Thumbnails not loading

[ffinger]

Hey,

sometimes the thumbnails with video content won't show up and also the rest of the site, that is not visible in the viewport (maybe every 3th-5th time I'm loading the page, just keep refreshing to see it). Links are not clickable, it seems the site is frozen for about 10 sec. It occurs on Safari 4.0 on Mac OSX 10.15.6. I have no clue what's wrong, maybe you can help me with that. Screenshot of the site with error attached.

Dear Felix @ffinger

In the console the play request is getting interrupted:

https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/06/play-request-was-interrupted

Will forward this to Armin & hope to get back to you shortly.
As always to make sure:

• Wordpress, Lay Theme & Laytheme's Addons are all up to date ?
• Any Custom CSS or JS that may interfere is temporarily removed.
• Any third-party plugins de-activated to see if this resolves the issue.

Best wishes
Richard

Hey Richard,

thanks for the quick response. Today I can't reproduce the bug, I didn't change anything. To you still get the console error? I don't. Maybe it fixed itself :)

Cheers

Hello!

Please dont use .mov files, only mp4 files
You can use the free app "handbrake" to convert files!

When I try to load a video just by going to the URL
https://www.felixfinger.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Wuerfel_02.mp4

It takes a very long time to load and show up?
Does it work well for you if you just go to https://www.felixfinger.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Wuerfel_02.mp4 ?

If not, can you write an email to your webhost support about this?

@arminunruh Thanks a ton, I'll replace the .mov video. The loading time for me on the mp4 files is fast, maybe it was a temporary hosting problem. Next time I'll contact the host, thanks for the tipp! :)) Keep up the good work!

Best,
Felix
