Why the video isn’t playing smoothly?
Hello Papia Mustary,
The video is playing well for me and I've just checked the settings and everything seems to be in order.
I'd suggest trying it again after some time, as I think it must be a temporary problem.
But if you still have trouble, please let us know at what time in the video you start to have problems.
All the best,
Kirk
