Troubleshooting

If the app prompts you to enter the license key, and the field is filled with a key, click or tap submit. If this does not succeed, use the full URL originally provided to access the app.

In unusual circumstances the app may be unresponsive, fail to load, or fail to open a video. These can be resolved most often by these steps.

  • Refresh the web page using the controls of your browser. This is often control-R or command-R. If that fails, try shift-control-R or shift-command-R.
  • If you are able to run the app in a private browsing tab, the local files of the app may be corrupted. To fix this in your main browsing windows, clear the cache in your browser for videoanalysis.app. When you browse back to the app you will need the long URL that includes the access key.
  • Confirm that you are using a compatible browser.
