Playback Issue :: 2111

While using the Xfinity Stream App away from home, I regularly 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. 

It doesn't appear to be any particular "on the go" channel.  Also appears to happen whether I'm connected to a wifi signal or using my phone's data (we have unlimited data).  Seems to be getting progressively worse.  Would like to know why I'm getting this message and, more importsantly, how I can avoid getting it.

@user_47789d Thank you for reaching out on the Xfinity Community Forums. Are you still seeing an issue with the stream app? I would recommend if you have not tried, uninstall and reinstall the Stream app. Please let us know.

I had uninstalled/reinstalled the app once I 1st started seeing this, but hadn't here recently. 

I did go ahead and do it again a few days ago.  I don't get this message nearly as much now, but still do get it periodically.

Hello, @user_5km0li! Thanks for reaching out to us on the forums! I apologize to hear that you are having issues with the playback on the Xfinity Stream app. We appreciate that you have tried to uninstall and reinstall the app to see if that resolved the issue. Can you let us know what device you use the app on? iPhone, Android, PC?

I have uninstalled, re- installed app several times. I have restarted phone several times. I spoke with two Xfinity representatives who sent signals to refresh modem. I still get playback issue 2111 message. Any other suggestions?

Yes I am. I noticed however that only one channel works. No others.
