Unable to view password protected videos on android's default browser
 
Looks like there are no user sessions passed to the player on default browser I can only play videos installing another browser.

Any other solution?

I'm sure there are some Android players that.will pop up a user/pass box. That said, Microsoft announced the were removing basic authorization (gray popup dialog) support from their player ten years ago, before putting that back in. MS tried to remove basic auth because it's purposely designed to be insecure, but wad included in HTTP as a temporary measure until real authorization systems were developed for the web. That's the real problem - the site is using a temporary band-aid introduced 18 years ago until better method became available fifteen years ago. The "right" solution is for the site to move out of the IE 3.0 days and into the digital age.
