Chrome is NOT playing videos from sites like Dailymotion and other movie/TV sites. They work fine on PC and my Samsung Tablet.
What would be the issue and a fix. See attached pics.

Install firefox android and ublock origin plugin and everything should work.
Re: Chrome Not Playing Videos
It may be that the censorship settings that are downloaded by Chrome are blocking those web site, like they block RT News streaming.
There is a setting in the android system that allows you to remove the updates that Chrome has done, like a factory reset just for Chrome.
The problem re blocked sites is that the blocking is added by Chrome to the video player, so using another browser like TVBrowser also will not play as that other browser uses the same player.
What I needed to do was factory reset the GT Combo, with the net disconnected.
Remember that all data, channel lists, IPTV, Ccam, etc are lost with a reset, so save save.
Having the net disconnected stops Chrome from updating while you disable it. For me it normally took 3 days for Chrome to update.
Then in the setting apps all apps click on Chrome and disable it.
I also disable all the google stuff as well and any other app that I do not use that can be disabled.
Then I load TVBrowser and run that as my browser.
There as limitations with TVBrowser. Many web sites now will not connect to you if they do not LIKE the browser you use.
Here in NZ, Trademe, our auction site, Countdown supermarket do not let you use TVBrowser.
Why you ask? Well maybe they can not SEE all the stuff in your PC, like cookies that they want.
Trademe was reported as using users PC's to mine bitcoin for Trademe.
It may be worth a test.
If you do not want to load TV Browser, try those web sites after a full system factory reset.
If they work then and in 3 days after Chrome has updated, shown by the Chrome browser then having a refresh button, you find that you can no longer access those web site, then you know why.

Can the wireless logitech touch keyboard K400 be used as an input device on the GTcombo?
