Adblock and Youtube

Post by Javan »

I keep getting the black screen from Youtube when opening a video. If I reload it comes up.
Then depending what way the wind is blowing part way into the video I get the black screen again.
With this text. "An error occurred. Please try again later (Playback ID:qbc8dExpUdk25U1l)
And below that you get the Learn More. If I disable blocking on that site all works normal with the ads.

Mac OS 10.12.6 Safari 12.0.3

In the last few days I have found that if I turn Adblock off for Youtube the problem goes away.

Anyone know if there is a fix or some workaround?

Hey there!

Thanks for making us aware! We have gotten reports on this in the past but I haven't been able to reproduce on my end. Can you let us know which filter lists you are using? Have you tried browsing in private window to see if this solves the issue? We look forward to your follow up!

Thanks
