can anyone help? I have a number of my own videos/movies stored on One Drive in the Cloud. Wanted to watch them while on holiday. All of them would show a few minutes then freeze. Only ones that worked were those transferred via iTunes before going on holiday and I could watch on the Video App on iPad.
Unfortunately could only use 2 videos this way due to lack of space.

is there an app or method that when away i can successfully access One Drive and watch these videos. Obviously don't have access to a PC or iTunes when away.

The reason they're freezing up on you every few minutes is because you don't have enough WiFi bandwidth to handle streaming those videos. The solution would be a faster internet connection.

That was my thought. Tested when I came home. My router gives me 39 download and 9.7 upload using infinity. Same problem so don't thinks it's the wifi. Had infinity when away as well
