I haven't been able to play any videos on the showtime anytime app. Since I rarely used it before I am not sure if its a Beta issue or something with my phone, or the app itself. (I'm on beta 4 on 7 plus)

I am a subscriber and logged in succesfuly with my cable providers credentials
I tried streaming several different movies and shows.. on Wifi and on LTE
I downloaded a few movies and shows for offline viewing

No matter what I do I get the following error: Video playback failed - please try again later

Oh and i uninstalled the app and re-installed it and rebooted my phone.

Same here...and I didn't run it before either. Was just trying to re-watch Twin Peaks and it says video won't load or something...
