Youtube not working

Hello,

When I go to youtube to watch some video the video downloads again and again and when it finally starts playing it plays 5 seconds then stops for a minute and does that again and again. Also the screen turns unsharpened. On windows videos won`t play at all and it says “an error occurred”.

Hello.

Do you wish to watch YouTube videos from any Windows based browser through WINE, or are you just in the wrong sub-forum?

Didn’t mean to be dismissive.

You should try to explain a bit more about what you actually try to do, and which browser, or player/suit etc, you attempt to do it with; the Windows reference was a bit confusing.

Just one question. Did you turned of the RC4 cipher in Firefox? I am just asking, because I had the same problems. Youtube isn’t working with a turned off RC4 cipher.

Which web browser are you using?
If you install the chrome web browser it has a current native plugin other browsers generally use the NPAPI protocol and the last version for linux was 12.
It may be a version issue.

Are you using the native linux plugin or the windows one through pipelight?

Are you using a user agent overrider?
If it is set to a MS internet explorer it can cause issues with websites that use activeX stuff. Try disabling it.

Other issues:
A poor internet connection can cause issues with videos loading and failing to play. Try setting the quality of the video lower (HD content takes a lot of bandwidth)

People, this is the games forum.

If you are talking about web browsers and youtube and flash etc, you’d
better ask a moderator to move the post to the appropriate forum.
