What Causes Discovery Plus Fallback Error Code?
A Discovery Plus Fallback Error Code occurs when Discovery Plus can’t find the video you’re trying to access on the server, so it tries to play the next video in the queue, i.e., falling back on earlier plans. It’s effectively the same issue as when you get an Error Code 504, meaning that the server has failed to communicate with your system. Error Code 504 isn’t exclusive to Discovery Plus, and neither is the Fallback Error, although you won’t see it described in the same way elsewhere. It indicates a Gateway Timeout Error which means there’s a problem with the connection between you and the server - in this case, Discovery Plus. Here’s a brief look at what may be occurring when you receive such an error message:

If your internet connection is unreliable, you may receive this error message to show a problem with communicating with the servers.The Discovery Plus servers are down.
