YouTube videos - not working (SSL?)

[Jimmy Dread]

Hi AM

Not sure if it's just me (tried on different browsers and still the same), but YouTube videos seem to have stopped showing up on forum posts since the switch to SSL. Any ideas how to fix?

Yes, related to the HTTPS upgrade (forgot about YouTube videos) Any embedded YouTube video will now need to use a HTTPS URL for it to load properly. (I'll retro update existing YouTube URLs to use HTTPS).

Hullo ! I don't seem to be able to see the YT videos on the forums, I have that blank square instead. I'm using Chrome and this has just popped up in the last few days or so. Is anybody having the same trouble, or is anything the matter on my end?

Hi, apologies for the problem. Nothing has changed this end (since the last update), so it's possible your browser has out of date copies of the files. If you are using a PC, you could try clicking CTRL + F5 (whilst on BEA) to refresh the scripts on your browser (on a Mac: CMD + R). If you are on another platform, or this still does not rectify the problem, please let me know and I'll do my best to fix it.

Refreshing doesn't solve the problem.

Hi Norman, are you using a desktop Windows PC, Mac (or other), or are you using some kind of mobile device (if so, which one)? Are you using any browser extensions? Any extra info would help me to diagnose & fix the issue.

I'm using a PC with Windows (Vista -___-', which might explain the problem : it won't update Chrome anymore), and Chrome. I haven't tried with Firefox yet, will do tonight. Thanks for your time AM.

No problem & thanks for extra info. It might just be a quirk occurring with Chrome on Vista but I'll wait to see if anybody else reports an issue with other platforms. I'd be interested to know if the issue occurs on the same PC with Firefox (if so, could indicate a problem deeper down). FWIW, Vista is going end of life very soon so a lot of products are no longer being updated.

[Norman Bates]

Works fine on Firefox, I'll probably have to give up Chrome altogether.

Thanks for letting me know
