Kindle Fire will not play video due to update error

For several days it has been noticed that the Kindle Fire is not playing any video, not only YouTube or Dailymotion videos but also everything that is reproduced via steaming, such as videos from Facebook, Twitter, Vimeo, etc ...

As far as we know, only the Amazon Prime and Netflix service are saved, even Pandora has been affected by it. Apparently the problem lies in a faulty update that prevents streaming videos. This is a big problem of which Amazon has already been warned and is working on it but it will not be possible to solve it in a general way for three or four days.

So if you are one of the many affected, just be patient and wait as any alternative solution does not work, except for the downgrade but this would erase all data from our Kindle Fire. And clearing the cache, uninstalling the app, etc ... would be just as useless as turning the tablet off and on.

The latest Kindle Fire update doesn't allow streaming video playback

One of the reasons why many users prefer the Kindel Fire to a Kindle Paperwhite or Kindle Voyage is because of its color screen and its video playback, without this the truth is that many users either will not use their tablet or will not see it. meaningfully, feeling hurt.

The most curious thing about this error is that it seems that it does not affect Amazon Prime or Netflix, something curious since other streaming services do not work. The truth is that many of you will think that it seems like a trick of those of Bezos but in this case, unlike the rest, it is something that Amazon has recognized as a technical error that it will try to solve as quickly as possible.

Meanwhile, the Kindle Fire can play the video offline and if it is downgraded, remember not to update because if you do, you will be as before.

    Well, for a couple of days that I can no longer play videos, I had uninstalled the app and installed applications, visited forums and could not find solutions in this regard. Hope it's just a buggy update issue and they fix it soon.
