Title: YouTube videos not visible on Outpost
Post by: Basvarken on February 05, 2022, 07:04:06 AM
Since a few weeks (maybe a bit more even) I have problem with YouTube videos that are shared on the Outpost not appearing in my browser.
I first thought it was maybe my browser (Chrome) that needed an update, but that is not the solution.
And in Safari I have the same problem.
The only browser that shows the videos is an outdated version of Firefox.

Other forums that I frequent do not have this problem. All browsers work just fine.

Do any of you guys have this problem too?
Or maybe a tip how I can fix it?

The same goes for me. Don't have any clue concerning how to get it right. Is it just an Europe thing?

Quite often now videos from Europe don't play for me lately.  I didn't know if it was a copyright EU issue or maybe my computer.  But some play and some don't.

Same here but for me if I click the you tube banner they will often play.

Same here. They don't show up at all. My browser tries to download all the clips on each page, but they crap out with a "to many redirects" message. Been like that for a couple months at least.

In my browser there is nothing to click on. There's just a blank space.

I'm still researching but somehow the extension that allows YT videos to appear when you just post the URL has stopped working correctly for some of you. Later today I'll deactivate it and upload a different extension. Stay tuned.

Yes! It works. I see all the YouTube videos again. And they play.

Thank you Dave! :toast:

Nope, definitely not. Any programming modifications needed would be above my head. The forum extension that allowed auto-embedding hadn't been updated for a long time and stopped working, at least for some members. I deactivated it and installed a newer extension that's been kept up to date.

Just loaded 16.1 on the pad.

I found if I hit the quote button , and then scrolled down all the links would show , but it’s better having them turn up right away.

All I can tell you is that we're running the current version of the extension, Whatever Apple is doing is beyond my control.

Apple produces stuff in white.

The Empire Storm Troopers wear white.

Coincidence....?  Perhaps not.
