    Youtube links now showing on forums (firefox browser)

    For the past few days, any time someone posts a youtube link in a post, instead of the video I just get a big white box. Was working before I went on vacation last week, so not sure what may have happened. If I use IE 8 though, they show up properly. My guess is a flash update not working properly.

    Last update to the Youtube plugins messed up a lot of thing... not sure anything can be done about it.

    That would explain it. I just noticed it was doing it on my rift guild forum site as well.

    Somewhat similar I guess, but often when I click a page with a youtube video it fails to load anything beyond the video and doesn't go to the most recent post that I haven't seen. It just loads down to the video and stops. Refreshing generally makes the whole page load.

    Firefox 13, Windows 7, Noscript but I allow BG, etc.

    Just a heads up I actually found a fix. If you have real player and the latest version of flash, it will cause the problems I had of youtube links and what not stop showing up in the forums. Here's the fix if others are still having this problem

    tags don't seem to be working to embed youtube clips.

    Noticed this in the NHL forum in GD when I just tried on Firefox.

    Make sure you're not trying to embed an https URL.
