Help viewing video clips?
Recently started using a Samsung tablet. When I come on a thread in the cafe with a video clip in a post, all I see is a gray box with a puzzle piece type shape in the center and the words "This plugin not supported".
I'm not much of a computer geek and am not having any success figuring out how to remedy this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Dale

Thanks Mark. I tried that and it led me to some apps which really didn't help.
If I go the the same thread/post on my iPhone or Windows computer, everything is fine. It's just this Samsung. I regret getting it for several reasons.

Likely you need to install Flash - https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Re: Help viewing video clips?
I clicked on the link you provided and it gave me a message saying that Adobe Flash Player is not supported by my device.
Thanks for your help though.
I think this Samsung might make a good rifle target

Is your Samsung an Android system?

You may be able to install an alternate web browser in your tablet that allows the flash plugin. I think the problem may lie in the default browser on your Android device.

I think you may be right Mark. I found a site online where a guy walks you through installing an archived version of flash player. Haven't tried it yet.

could try Opera, last android phone I installed it because I hated the default browser. Think is supports flash plugin

Thanks Kevin. I'll look into that.
