You Tube playback errors

Odd, I never had any issues with YT links before. Now they all show up like below. The audio plays, but the vids are corrupt. Is it something that changed here? Accessing OR via Android.

That is a strange one as I've not seen this myself or heard of any additional reports of it.

I tried on PC with both Edge and Chrome. Did the same on my Android device too with the same two browsers.

Have you tried rebooting your device?

Ok. Still doing it here. I can't watch most YouTube links.

Here's something odd... the vids generally play properly for a few seconds, then the video is replaced by the image above, but the audio still plays. OR is the only place where I have this issue.

Yep, have rebooted, but to no avail.

Forgot to ask, Flatboots or Elegance theme?

Just for the sake of troubleshooting, can you try it in Flatboots and see if it works?

Ok, I switched to FB, went to the Late Night Vid thread and played a few. Then I switched back to Elegance, played the same vids, and got this:

Like before, it played fine for a few seconds before the video went out. Buffering issue?

This one might take a little time to troubleshoot/fix. Reason being that the YouTube embed module is actually part of the Flatboots theme so honestly I'm surprised that it worked that well on Elegance to begin with.

Let me get in touch with the developer of that module and see if there is anything we can do as a quick fix to get it working properly. Something must have changed on the YouTube side because I haven't updated any code on this site in a while.

I'll let you know what I come back with. Thanks for your patience!

Ok that's a different issue that I can more easily ask for help on if it's happening on Flatboots too.

Can you tell me the type of device, version of Android, and browser version?

Any hint of what I might do to resolve this? Can't play any vids in posts due to this issue. Thx!

I had a developer working on a solution but he sorta disappeared on me. I'll try to reach back out to him and see if he can provide an update.

Apologies for the delay!
