Is anyone else heen experiencing Flash problems on Youtube? It
affects both Chrome and Firefox - but they seem to be able to play
Flash videos on other sites.
Answering my own question again :)
The key is to make HTTP into HTTPS for some bizarre reason that
only Google knows. HTTP works for some users..for those who just get
the black box, add the 's'...
Weird! I've had the same problem, and the same workaround works for me
(using https instead of http). So, thanks!
But, what makes you associate the problem with google? I have the
problem with youtube URLs, like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ud_wGMXRnQ
That URI works for me, both "https://"; and "http://"; (using Firefox 5
and
lenny). Maybe you are facing some sort of browser cache problem?
Could be...and seemingly not a Google problem.
I am running Sid, updated. This morning I tried
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ud_wGMXRnQ (the url
above)
and it loads and plays. When I dropped the 's', I get the black screen
of death both on Firefox 5.0
and Google-chrome. This has only started lately, and the same URL's
both work in Ubuntu Maverick and
Natty with both Chrome and Firefox 5.0. Seems to be it's a Sid
problem, unless we hear from other
Sid users who don't have the problem.
I've been experiencing the same problem on Wheezy since (and this
*might* just be a coincidence) the latest upgrade to Iceweasel 3.5.19-3
on Tuesday.
However, having just tested it on a machine that I haven't upgraded yet
(still running 3.5.19-2), I can confirm that it has the same problem, so
that rules out the update as the cause.
