Hello ak_kanan, 

 

Welcome to the forums. 

 

Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off.  Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue. 

 

Let us know how you make out.

I'm having the same issue since I updated my PlayBook last week. I used to be able to stream off the net now nothing. Tried the trick from above and still no help. Please help me.
