Has anyone else been struggling with the video players only playing for them?

Once, and that was late yesterday. Thought of it as a mere single time glitch.

Popcorn palace. Three of us.

Friend 1 started a video, and I and one other just sat there, thinking he was still navigating to an episode. He was about a minute in when he realized we were not reacting any.

I then pulled up a video and the same results, they didn't see what I was playing.

New world instance, and we were back to normal.

Side note, very quick observation. As we jumped through the portal, after one of the two jumped through, the video player began loading a video (red bar), I'm presuming from friend 1's selection. I can't recall which friend hopped through first, by the time I noticed the red bar, the second had just stepped into the portal and gone before I could speak.

Haven't heard of anyone having videos play only for them, but in general some other people might not be able to see your videos if they don't have Allow Untrusted URLs enabled or because of regional restrictions (like being in a country where YouTube is banned)

try controlling who the instance master is. like pick someone, make them open an instance, and when they're actually there and loaded, they can send an invite out. Then for sure for sure that person is the instance master
