Default Embeded youtube links

Embeded youtube vids showing up as broken links. Looks like the jpg broken link icon too.
Is this at my end?

These are from images or video that other people are posting. Like Anthony Cook, they just show a window where an image or vid should be and an icon top left. These aren't from ones I'm posting.

I'm having problems with seeing embedded videos as well. This is what I see when someone posts a video:



Not sure if it's the same issue as mentioned in the OP, but figured I would add this here to see if anyone had suggestions.

EDIT: I've looked around a little and it seems this isn't just happening for me on CP, it's any site where there's embedded videos. So, I guess I am SOL.

I've been getting really weird stuff happening re: embedded Youtube, where the video will just be randomly located in the middle of a page. Happened a few times in the Hottie Draft II thread, I'll be sure to screencap and post it here if it happens again.

Is your adobe flash player up to date?

I just downloaded the latest, but it didn't help. I can still watch Youtube videos on Youtubes site, but if they are embedded on other sites, it doesn't work.

Try deleting your cookies and temporary internet files and see if that helps.

^^Nope. Still can't see embedded videos. Thanks for the suggestions though.

*sigh*

Not sure what happened. I went away for a month, left my computer at home, come back and can't see videos.

I hate browser problems, the easiest way to fix them is to switch browsers

If it's IE, maybe try installing the latest IE 8?

I downloaded the latest IE, and that didn't work. I switched browsers and that worked. What the hell? Fricking IE. I don't want to switch.

You prefer IE over Firefox?

That's unpossible!

Do you also churn your own butter and use a washboard when doing laundry?

It's okay. You'll still be my favourite Amish poster on here.

Well, if you can think of a better way to get my clothes clean, I'd like to hear it.

I'd say my washing machine but then you'd probably want to use my dryer too!

I think there's a Firefox plugin for that.

This just happened to me in the Hottie Draft II thread:




Don't know if it's something on my end, the browser, or what. Let me know if there's anything I can do to prevent it, because it's getting kind of annoying.
