I try to play it on Firefox: --- Lenovo Yoga 2 1050F Lollipop 5.0. Lenovo P1m Lollipop 5.1. --- In browsers: Dolphin / Maxthon "Android System Web View" is used and it works. But not in Firefox (or Google Chrome) ? --- Why ? Thank you.

Hi Dezider.

Unfortunately I currently do not have an Android device, but I tried to open southpark.cc.com on desktop and seems it requires Flash to watch the videos. [How do I watch Flash videos with Firefox for Android?] help article should help you.

You are probably right. On the desktop the southpark.cc.com may be using Flash but if it detects Android maybe it offers some other video format ? "Lenovo Yoga 2 Android Lollipop 5.0" is using Intel Atom and Flash on Android is not supported on Intel but recently, before the latest OTA update, it played southpark.cc.com videos well. It was step by step that the southpark.cc.com videos are now not playing at all on "Lenovo Yoga 2". At first it played on "Google Chrome", Dolphin, Maxthon. Then some OTA update arrived, around 6 months ago, and "Google Chrome" stopped playing the southpark.cc.com videos but Dolphin and Maxthon still played well and even both browsers played the videos only if I uninstalled all the updates of "Google Android System WebView". But now I have the latest OTA update on "Lenovo Yoga 2 Android Lollipop 5.0" and even when I uninstall all the updates of "Android System WebView" the southpark.cc.com videos won't play in none browser at all. But all the commercials on the web are playing very well so google's business is not impacted at all so I am very happy user of Android device :-)). Thank you

Only wanted to let you know that I applied the latest OTA update on Lenovo Yoga 2, Android 5.0.1 on April 21, 2016 and southpark video is again working in browsers: Google chrome, Maxthon, Dolphin but Firefox still can't play the video. Please see the attached picture of the tablet with Google chrome playing the video. Im reminding it is Intel Atom.
