Unable to play any dailymotion video

Troubleshooting technical issues is much easier when both the user and support agent practice clear communication. For this reason, we have provided the template below for you to fill out with information about your issue. Please provide as much detail as possible so we can most efficiently resolve your problem.


Description of the issue: impossible to play any dailymotion video, directly on the website or embedded in another page, with brave shields on or off. The vidéo playback is blocked at “Chargement de la vidéo (loading)”. It is probably because the website tries to load the ads, which is probably blocked by brave, even if brave shields are off

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open dailymotion site (from France?) with or without brave shields

  2. Open any video (for instance https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9oekmw ) or try to play any dailymotion vidéo embedded in another site (for instance https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/La-video-du-premier-but-d-hugo-ekitike-avec-liverpool-apres-seulement-4-minutes-de-community-shield-contre-crystal-palace/1584333)

  3. Try to play The video. It will stop at “chargement de la vidéo). The vidéo will not load (it does with chrome or firefox)

Expected result: vidéo playing

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.80.124

Mobile Device details : Google pixel 8

Additional Information: browsing from France
