wsc Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Overnight I've developed problems with playing videos on the ThisVid.com website. Problem applies to all videos I try to play. Problem started with a "Privacy Violation" notice (don't remember actual wording) but would not even connect me to a video. Now, I get connected to the site, but every video starts with a still flash of content them immediately goes to the message "html5: video file not found". Google search does show possible solutions, some apparently related to "credentials" sent to the website but not being recognized. Not being a techie, the suggested solutions make it seem easier for me to learn Mandarin and start watching Chinese porn from now on. Anyone experience same/similar problems or can offer insights or solutions? All other porn sites I visit are working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastBtm Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 None of the videos appear to be working... I get error messages on every one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swissgameboy Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 I have the same problem , message : html5: Video file not found would be happy to know why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsc Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 A day or two before my problem began, I had choices of "update and turn off" or "update and restart" [no option to not update] when I went to turn off my PC, so the update was installed. Anyone else experiencing this issue remember undergoing a recent update before the problems started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ azdr0710 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I've never used the thisvid website before, but checked it out just now.....I'm also getting the "html5: video file not found" message a half-second after clicking on any video (as you, a very quick still picture flash happens at first.).... yes, I did have an auto-update (Windows, I guess) about four or so days ago when turning off my desktop.....this is a normal thing that happens every few weeks, of course, and I thought nothing of it......nothing else has been amiss since the update, though.....

In this case, however, with only one website being problematic it seems like the issue is with that website. The easiest solution is simply to watch videos on a different website until thisvid is fixed by its administrators. wsc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ robear Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Also had this problem, seems to have been resolved by the site as of this morning + azdr0710 and wsc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsc Posted October 18, 2021 Author Share Posted October 18, 2021 Great news from robear! Checked out the site myself and it's now working fine. With reports of others having the same problem, it seemed likely less a problem with my connection and more like something wrong at the other end. maninsoma's insight was spot on, to wait "until thisvid is fixed by its administrators." Well, at least I had a little time to rest my sore wrist.😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spider Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Is thisvd generally OK to use? The couple times I tried I got some feeling that wasn't secure and didn't continue, I can' explain why I'm just generally very cautious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsc Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 I watch thisvid quite a lot because they have a ton of content. The only problem I've had with the site is that they're pretty aggressive at deleting videos for whatever reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've visited thisvid for years without negative incident, both viewing and downloading content. As with all porn sites, I think it's doubly important to be sure your protection is in full force: VPN, firewall/anti-virus, popup blocker, etc. And of course, creating a completely anonymous account at the site without any identifying information.
