Playback Issue 2111

I get the playback issue 2111 error when trying to watch live tv on my Samsung TAB E Nook tablet.  Recorded shows playback fine.  The tablet is connected to my home wifi network.  I have tried un-installing and re-installing the Stream app but that did not help.  The tablet is running Android version 7.1.1

Hi, @user_876b6a

 

Thanks for bringing this to our team's attention. Let's work together to make this right. 

 

When you experience this issue, do you also receive an error number following the playback issue 2111 messages?

There is no other error number shown. After a minute or more after selecting the live channe, I want to watch, I get the following message:

                                                 "Playback Issue::2111

We're sorry, but we're unable to play this video right now.  Please try a different channel or program."

I am sorry to hear you're having this issue with the Stream app! Are you still experiencing this issue, and if so, is it happening while you are connected to your home WiFi network?

Yes, it occurs while I am connected to my home wifi network.  My wife also has a Nook but she does not have this problem.

@user_876b6a In order to more effectively troubleshoot I'll need to collect some additional account information. Can you please send a direct message with your name and the complete service address? 

To send a "Direct Message" to Xfinity Support:

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon or https://comca.st/3EqVMu7

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there

 - As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list

 - An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

I no longer work for Comcast.

Hello - I am having the same issue on a similar device (Samsung Galaxy Tab E), I get the Playback Issue 2111 error and at the bottom of the screen it says Error 4.  I have cleared the data and cache, uninstalled and reinstalled, but getting the same issue when trying to view live tv.  No issues on my other devices, tvs and phones.  Thanks very much for the help.
