YouTube not working #104

Closed JohnBlackburne closed 9 years ago

I'm seeing two problems. For a few hours everywhere else YouTube isn't working, i.e. not bypassing Flash, on other sites. Here's one with three videos:

But I could have picked any of them. It seems not to be recognising it's YouTube as there's no "view on YouTube" option when I right click.

And some but not all YouTube videos are also not working, Here's one

Videos in my channels that I navigate to from the front page are OK. Others aren't that I've tried such as ones down the right of that one aren't OK.

Another odder example. This works:

This doesn't

It's the same video (a mildly scary trailer for a horror series) except the first link is to it alone, he second is to it in a playlist.

I don't know why but they're working again; all the above links work as do others which I noticed earlier with problems. Second time something like this has happened. I'll leave this here in case anyone else has some experiences/observations but feel free to close it as there's now nothing to fix.

Sometimes Safari is to blame for these things. It happened to me once recently that embedded/encrypted YouTube videos were not replaced anymore, and that was because Safari failed all its XHR requests to youtube.com. Restarting fixed the problem.
