YouTube video problems
« on: October 21, 2018, 02:38:02 PM »
 Just lately, YouTube videos have stopped showing up for me.

 People are posting them, and the space is just empty for me where the video should be.

 I tried posting one myself the other day, and it looked the same way.

 I’m on an iPad.

Already tried that. No luck.

 For a long time, it would let me see and watch them, but would NOT let me upsize to full screen. Said I did not have permission to upsize to full screen without actually going to the YouTube site, and I thought it must be a YouTube thing.

 It did this once before, but “fixed” itself when I updated the software. Did this a couple of days ago, but didn’t help this time.

 The only way I can see them is to hit the “quote” button. The link shows up in the quoted reply, and I can copy the link there, then paste it in my browser.

 Anybody gat any other suggestions?

Ugh, moving everything to https rears its ugly head again! Apologies for the issue there but you should now be able to see youtube videos again. Full-screen is a limitation from them though (annoys me on my devices too) so nothing I can do about that.

 Thank you sir. Whatever you did, it works great now.
