Yet Another Youtube Problem

[Powhusku]

For about a month now, I havent been able to see any youtube videos in google chrome only. Below is what it looks like. Just an empty white box.

Also I am now unable to embed youtube videos. If I try to post a video, it just creates a hyperlink. I am not using the "Insert Link" feature when I do this.

Example:


http://youtu.be/bpF__WvfwZ4

Tried searching but couldn't find a solution. I tried disabling all extensions in google chrome which did nothing. Is there a way to fix this problem?

I had this issue at work until they opened up youtube in my firewall permissions. I would guess youtube is blocked on your network somehow.

I am posting from home, and my firewall does not block it. Like I said, this only occurs on Chrome. If I come on here with firefox, I can see the videos, but I still cant embed them.

The code you want to use is:
[U2B]*the end of the YouTube URL (in your example it's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpF__WvfwZ4*[/U2B]

You don't want to use the URL tag.

Using the [U2B] [/U2B] tags works in all browsers. For whatever reason Chrome doesn't support just copy/pasting the URL.

I think I tried that but let me try one more time just in case.

Don't use the whole URL, just the "bpF__WvfwZ4&fs" part of the URL. I've bolded it in your previous post.

I assumed that worked. Any clue why I cant see embedded youtube videos? Also an issue exclusive to chrome, doesn't happen in firefox or IE.

No idea why you can't see it, but it worked on my end.
