Anybody else having issues with embedded Youtube videos?

Don't know what's happened, but one minute they were showing just fine. I opened another thread and they just showed up as black rectangles, and now it's every embedded video in any thread (including the one that was fine a moment ago. Using Chrome, it's fully updated and it's only on this forum that it happens.

You appear to have the wrong forum colour chosen*, that's probably why youtube refuses to play nicely.

* dark theme or GTFO, represent y0

Was that the trailer for Black Hole?

Had a similar issue for some time it won't play just get a "an error has occurred" and whatnot. Have to open in its own tab then its fine. Probably adblock blocking it or something

It's not uBlock as this just started happening when changing threads, and I've disabled uBlock to test and still occurs. Can't open them in their own tab either as they're not left clickable and right clcik just brings up a context menu.

This is still happening and I've tried everything I can think of. Clearing Chrome's cache, deleting all cookies pertaining to these forums, deleting all cookies pertaining to Youtube, disabling uBlock Origin.

It's only on Chrome here. If I use Firefox they show and work as normal.

I'm having YT issues with Firefox across MacOS and Linux when playing embedded YT videos. They flash very rapidly during playback or just constantly loop at the start. If I click on the video's YT logo to load it in a new tab then it is fine. The YT homepage is unaffected.

I am running PiHole and uBlock Origin on my FF browsers though so I assume Google have been fiddling around with how YT works.
