Working fine here too, recently I had videos from the US (but not Canada) all running slow with "holes" in them. It could well be a "Flash" issue as Tom says Regards, Matthew |

I haven't been able to view youtube video from this site on my laptop fora very long time. When I want to view I have to change to a different machine. So it must be something on the laptop that is causing it. The laptop runs XP and the desk top has vista. Another desktop has Linux. I have noticed that my Virgin Media often blocks everything when searching. There is also something about proxy servers that muddies the water. Dave. |

Okay, thanks guys, it must be local to the computers, and I'll work it out from here. Since it resulted after a browser update, that's the likely cause and I'll head to the Mozlla site. I'm thinking it's an interaction of the browser with Flash. I do also use Flashblock, but that has never interfered in the past, it just asks permission to run Flash before allowing it. Now there's nothing to allow at all. I'll report the solution here when I find it in case anyone else has the problem. |

Looks like the latest update to my browser broke Flashblock. I've reported the bug. If I drop Flashblock temporarily, looks like I can run Flash, and see YouTube again. I might revert to the prior browser version instead. I like to keep Flashblock. I imagine a fix will appear in the next update. FYI, the browser is "Seamonkey" -- a renamed Firefox and Thunderbird plus WYSIWYG Web Page editor combined into one package -- still a Mozilla product and using common code. Basically it's the current incarnation of the old Netscape Navigator suite, running the current Mozilla/Firefox browser and email engines. |
