Sometime this week my computer must have made some update I can't figure out that is causing an issue with embedded videos.
I run Windows 7 and generally use IE8.
If I am on a website (like a forum) that allows users to post a YouTube video by embedding it in their post I now see a black box with a rde 'play' arrow in it. Click on it does nothing. There is something causing the script to not run correctly and I cannot figure out what. I've made no changes I can think of in the last week, and this started about 3 days ago. Previously the video would show up, I could press play and it would. Anyone have any ideas? I updated Java and Adobe Flash. Jake |

Can you play videos on the actual Youtube site? Can you play videos on other video sites? Vimeo, for example? Can you play other flash content? Say, online games? |

Yes, I can watch the video on YouTube (and other sites). It is something to do with it being embedded in a forum post from what I can tell, some script error/error is how my machine is handling the script? |

Update: Issue has fixed itself. I did not make any setting changes nor did I knowingly apply any updates, but this evening the script runs fine for embedded videos. |
