Thank you for reporting this issue, Rumshaa Yunus. However the video does play for me in https://www.amara.org/en/videos/YzTqBnrVd61w/info/kara-para-ask-36bolum/?tab=video, on a Mac OS laptop with Firefox 41.01. And it seems unlikely that the difference is due to the OS.

Can you see the original video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRYXTDNHrxY correctly? I'm asking because it could be country-blocked for copyright reasons on YouTube.

Best,

Claude Almansi

 

Thankyou so much for your prompt reply. I figured the issue already. :) It was country blocked. Worked round it ^_^
Great! So I won't have to post workarounds like using a proxy, or downloading the video from YouTube for personal use, and the subtitles from Amara, and playing them together with desktop software like VLC :)
