I didn't find an existing similar error issue searching on "NBC" or "theplatform".
Gist of the dump is at https://gist.github.com/pkappesser/36872d6f13e8157bd1c6

Thanks!

Can you watch the video in browsers? I got a voice said "Its content is current unavailable"

Yes, it works for me in Chrome 42.0.2311.135. However it may be restricted only to viewers inside the USA.
