YouTube videos won't play.

Anyone else having problems viewing YouTube videos on YouTube?

I just updated to 1.2.4 and suddenly I get a blank spot where the video should be.
What is odd though is I can view YouTube videos that are embedded in forum posts or other websites.

I am running:
Mac OS X
10.5.4

Hi Soyner,

Thanks for letting us know. Does this happen with every video that you try to view on YouTube? Do you mind sending me a few links of the ones you've tried, so I can give it a go myself.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Thanks,

Yep. All vids.

I can copy the address (for example: http://youtube.com/watch?v=KDm0PqjAF78 ) into Safari and Firefox and it will play. But in Flock it suddenly (as of yesterday) won't even show up on the youtube page.

Here is a pic of what the page looks like:

PS: thanks for helping out.

Hi Soyner,

Thanks for the details. How do you feel about trying the new Flock 2.0 Beta? I copied the link you provided into my Flock and it worked just fine.

Please let me know.

Thanks!

Sounds good. I've pretty much caused everyone in the Creative department (at the Ad Agency I work at) to switch because of all the gushing I do about flock. I might as well take it to the next level. :p

Just let me know what I need to do to join.

Thanks.

I now have the beta installed and it looks like YouTube pages are working again. :)
