"An Error Has Occurred. Please Try Again Later" on YOUTUBE

Post by firefoxdude13 »

So apparently after reading here I'm not the only one seeing this. The "error" message lasts for the same amount of time the AD is supposed to play. Hitting "refresh" no longer works for me either, the stupid "error" message just comes back followed by a "Playback ID" number.

Is Google adapting now to Firefox AdBlockPlus? What's being done about this issue? It's basically rendered AdBlockPlus ineffective at the moment.

I'm having the same problem and after a search on reddit I found a partial solution. try adding https://www.youtube.com/get_video_info to your custom filters. The original post was suggesting to add http://www.reddit.com https://www.youtube.com/get_video_info xmlhttprequest allow to the permanent rules but that's was for Ublock origin and I have no idea how to implement that for AdBlock Plus.

Hey all!

The filter list authors are working on a fix for this issue. In the meantime, we noticed that signing out of your Youtube account helps with the error.

Thanks
