Wierd youtube/flash problem
Ok I was watching some vids on youtube when I get in text/link to get an upgrade instead on the vid, now I upgrade my flash player as suggest by the link and all goes well for the vid I was watching but when it goes to the next vid on the play list I get the text again and now I got real problems updating flash (again withing 10 mins).
is any else getting this same problem?

Re: Wierd youtube/flash problem
I'm also having the same problem, except for me the adobe website is so slow as sin that I am beginning to think the website is broken. Even screwier is if I view a youtube video posted on another site it shows fine but if I go directly to youtube I get this "go update" text instead of the video I just watched. This proves that the flash player is fine it is something wrong with youtube.

I get that sometimes. So far just refreshing the web page has cleared up the problem. I don't have any idea of the root cause, though.

Re: Wierd youtube/flash problem
You could do what I did - disable flash and use Firefox to save vidoes of interest and watch them at your leisure.

Re: Wierd youtube/flash problem
Just embed it and watch the video in the preview window. It's not as convenient, but it consistently works.

More then likely a bad cookie that refreshing the page overwrites. I deal with that sort of thing all the time at work.Scottish Ninja wrote:I get that sometimes. So far just refreshing the web page has cleared up the problem. I don't have any idea of the root cause, though.

Can you go into more detail about how to save the video?

Re: Wierd youtube/flash problem
Somehow youtube is working for me again and I did nothing more to fix it. I am seriously thinking the problem was on their end not mine.
