2. Stuck in queue issue

3. Stuck on the “Starting App” issue

Info

If your app typically streams without issues but sometimes gets stuck on the “Starting App” screen, this could be caused by a temporary network issue.

If your application is stuck on the "Starting App" page and displays a message similar to Figure 32, it likely indicates that the app was uploaded without enabling Pixel Streaming. To resolve this issue, please refer to the Enable Pixel Streaming Plugins Section to enable it.

The error message is “Our record indicates Your this app version don't have pixel streaming plugin enabled.So it cant stream”
