How to fix Dailymotion not working
Dailymotion is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Check the official status page
Open status.dailymotion.com. If it lists an incident for playback or your region, waiting is the only fix and nothing on your side will help.
Turn off blockers and extensions
Ad blockers and privacy extensions can stop the player from loading. Disable them for dailymotion.com, or open the video in a private window, where extensions are usually off.
Clear the browser cache
Old cached files can break the player after an update. Clear the cache and cookies for dailymotion.com, then reload the video.
Try another device or network
Play the same video on your phone over mobile data. If it works there, the problem is your computer, browser or home network rather than Dailymotion.
While Dailymotion is down: what to use instead
- YouTube YouTube helps when you want a broad mix of clips and live streams.
- Vimeo Vimeo suits film and art videos, so it helps when you want longer uploads.
- Twitch For live gaming and chat, Twitch is the closest substitute.
- Browser player If the app stalls or shows a playback error, open the service in a browser and sign in there.
What happens when Dailymotion goes down
Dailymotion is a video platform based in Paris, used both to watch videos and to embed players on news and media websites. That second role means a Dailymotion problem often shows up as broken video players on other sites as well as on dailymotion.com itself.
When Dailymotion has trouble, videos hang on the loading spinner, play without sound or stop with a playback error, and embedded players on partner sites go blank. Creators may find uploads stuck in processing or the studio not loading. Problems are often limited to one region or one kind of device, such as smart TV apps.

How we track Dailymotion
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Dailymotion, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Dailymotion, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Dailymotion's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
