Several people here on CC have been having issues as well as myself. There are times I'll get just a loading screen for 15 min straight and all you can do is keep refreshing the site. I have an IT background and just from what I can see on my end the site is acting like they're under extremely heavy traffic and can't maintain a stable connection because their servers are getting slammed. This could be due to several reasons, something as simple as they're actually having an influx of viewers, it could be a malicious DDOS attack (Although I highly doubt that because DDOS would typically 404 the site and no one could connect at all), it could be that wherever their site is hosted is renovating/upgrading their hardware and it's effecting their services, or it could just very well be the internet connections from the apts. themselves. But I can almost guarantee it has nothing to do with your hardware at all. If it's only having issues with RLC then that's going to be the problem. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've experienced this, but I don't think that's your problem. Your problem, since you are working with different operating systems and different browsers, is in your internet service or the connections to them. We have some network geniuses here, and I'm not one of them, but hopefully they will respond. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jouandomy Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I also had problems to watch RLC: frozen image, black screen, etc... and I discovered web browser named "BRAVE". I have no problem and everything works fine. I only use it for RLC and replay without any incident. I don't know how, but it works! I put my post there, it could be useful... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave is a pretty good browser. One of the things that Brave does that others don't is automatically blocks all the tracking algorithms, ad revenue trackers, analytics, and basically all that bullshit that slows sites down that allows them to make money. That brings up a good point, I use Ad-Blocker Plus and uBlock Origin in tandem for Firefox. That might be blocking something that @Nickis experiencing. So it may be that RLC may have added something or picked up a new ad that's severely crippling the site for certain users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKJOKER666 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Just a quick side note about the Brave browser. The browser is still in its infancy so they're constantly making changes. Most are minor but occasionally it'll have to be 100% complete reinstall of the browser itself that'll make you lose all your bookmarks and passwords. So I wouldn't make it your main browser just yet. It's really good, but it's subject to change on a moments notice. Good news is that they recently finally fixed the ability to copy bookmarks from Chrome and Firefox. So if you do have to reinstall you can just copy the bookmarks again along with the passwords.
