Youtube playback issues

[johnmongrel]

Some videos play on youtube--and some don't. When I disable ABP, the ones that don't play work again.

Any idea what's causing this?

Seems firefox no longer likes flash. I have the latest player and refreshed my firefox. Didn't help.

Thanks!

example videos ? Did you try also using html5 (disabling flash) ?

[johnmongrel]

I disabled flash, and that helped. But what really helped was disabling this filter: ||youtube.com/annotations_invideo.

I was trying to block in-video annotations.

Do you know a better filter that works? My youtube preferences never stay saved for some reason, thus I need a filter to keep those pesky annotations at bay.

Thanks!

I think I found what I was looking for: ||youtube.com/annotations_

[johnmongrel]

Nope. ||youtube.com/annotations_ made the html5 video unplayable.

Still looking for an all-encompassing filter to disable in-video annotations for youtube.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Did you try the settings here?

Yep. The problem is those settings never stay the way I want them. Meaning I have to change them back every time I log into youtube. Pain in the butt.

I'm still getting these annoying "suggested" video windows that appear inside the vid box.

Is there a filter for that?

Thanks!

Yes, there is a filter for this. There is a complement for firefox called Youtube High Definition. Install the extension and after that, click in the "HD" symbol and disable the annotations.
