Students Unable to Access Certain Lessons - Black Screen Issue

Hi everyone,

Some of my students have reached out to me about being unable to access certain lessons in my course. They encounter a black screen, and since they cannot watch these videos, they are unable to progress to subsequent lessons. Interestingly, the affected videos vary for each student.

From my end, I’ve checked these lessons, and everything seems fine technically. There are no visible issues with the videos or their upload. I’ve also gone through Udemy's support articles about Video Troubleshooting and tried to guide the students accordingly, but the problem persists.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue or found a solution for it? Any suggestions or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!
