I asked a friend to call Xfinity and they opened a ticket and had no idea why it would work on other browsers but not Chrome. I still don't know why anyone is talking about Edge here. This topic is specifically about Chrome with the error xact.3305.403. I asked others to be moved but posted the wrong name and the mod moved the only person talking about my issue. But I'll get help elsewhere.   Can someone close this thread? ... View more

I have not done anything in my routers, so unless the DNS resentley required a change that Xfinity didn't tell me about, it's not any settings in the router, DVR or anything other than how Xfinity potes out the stream or Chrome. @Rustyben wrote: my chromebook works fine on both web page and xfinity stream TV app. check your network settings is dns set to your router's address or 75.75.76.76 ?   ...

@ComcastJessie wrote: All,   We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that you are experiencing. Xfinity Stream error codes '3305' typically occur when there is not a steady connection to the Internet.  Please check your Internet connection is strong and steady and try again.   Additionally, Recently Google Chrome released an update, Chrome 76. In order to keep using Xfinity Stream with this latest update, you must enable Flash on your Google Chrome Browser. For full directions on how to complete this change, please see here: https://forums.xfinity.com/t5/XFINITY-Stream-Website/Xfinity-Stream-How-To-Enable-Flash-on-a-Google-Chrome/td-p/3247446   If you have already completed these updates, have verified your Internet network connection or are not using Google Chrome please share all browser version and device details here so we can further assist.  Chrome is up to date, (Chrome 77 on ChromeOS 12345) in fact the date of the last update is when I started having issues. My flash version is 32.0.0.223, updated with Chrome. I use Xfinity for my internet... so if something has slowed down in the last few days it's on you. The first page for the error does ask if flash is emabled and yes it is, so is javascipt. ... View more

Doesn't work on my sisters Chromebook either, so it would appear that DRM currently prohibits all ChromeOS devices... but it doesn't work and gives the same error xact.3305.403 on every OS and device running Chrome browser. Only Chrome browser is effected by this error. My guess is that that error has nothing to do with the hardware it's on, especially given that it started only four days ago. It must be something that was implement by Xfinity servers or a Chrome update issue. Chrome has been trying to faze out flash, so maybe they are trying to pass the video to html5 or something. But it matters not as I will be switching to a different cable provider, as only Xfinity is so pi55y about hardware and doesn't offer support for anything outside Windows Edge: AKA the worst browser ever made including Netscape. It's such a shame that they don't have a tech team that knows how to deliver streaming content to everyone, like every other service online today. DRM currently prohibits TV interface directly to chrome (TV chromeOS). only the roku TV and some samsung TVs are allowed to run the stream TV beta app.   ... View more

I'm not sure what you mean by "out of date" all are fully updated. Linux isn't supported (true) but with some work it can work, though do to needing a patch for the kernel and some third party software... I don't recommend it. Mac has always been supported as well but Safari isn't so you have to use a different browser. I only have to use Windows for two applications for my work, else I would just use Linux or MacOS, especially since they started using tiles. But it doesn't really matter, I have proven that this very new error is an issue that that effects Chrome in all instance.   If the tech team at Xfinity can't fix this, I'm not surprised as they can't seem to get streaming to work outside of the apps except to a small number of Windows only select browsers. They need to build more universally driven encoded streaming software like Netflix, Hulu, Youtube and even some competitors in the cable business do. Ultimately if the user gets an error and they don't have the necessary tools to direct people to a solution, they would be better off not even giving an error code in the first place. But When I deliver code to be deployed, it better work on any OS, of any version, and if it requires a browser or to be implemented on a website it has to work on all browsers and versions. But it doesn't look like Xfinity employs any of the tech team to either this forum or the stupid chat bot on the support site, and I'm not able to call them in hopes of are response, so when my contract is up I'm not renewing. ...

@RobertWy wrote: @BrownHouse wrote: This started yesterday on Chrome. I cleared all site data, Double checked that Javascript and Flash was on on the site, used the X1 support tool that can only reboot the device, (it should have options to update firmware, give connection information, tell you system information such as its running temperature and more) And I have tested this on multiple browsers and with different operating systems. It is only an issue on Chrome, but on all operating systems minus IOS or Android... I didn't test those as we have the Xfinity APP. I have read that the issue might be outdated firmware, but the only way to fix that is to call support... but I'm an introvert with anxiety and would have to ask my roommate to call for me. Again they need to update thing on the site, they need to add the ability to live chat an agent... but I would have to prewrite what I wanted to say.   Anyways, any help?

I ended up getting an older Android phone that has an infrared device inside, then I setup vnc and live cam to run in the background while using the builtin remote app. Just had to make sure the camera was pointing the right way. I had thought of using an infrared adapter on my computer and a capture card with vnc, but the I'd have to get the codes for the remote that came with the X1 in order to program the device, and I'm kinda to lazy for that. It might also be possible to use a smart remote and sideload vnc... but IDK if they have cameras.   But this still zucks and they should just code a new software that doesn't infringe on copyrights. ...
