Damn you, Adobe, and Youtube.: YouTube has stopped working on Firefox and Chrome
I guess I updated my adobe flash and now Google Chrome and Firefox will not play YouTube videos. Everything from Hulu to other videos sites work just as they did before, but YouTube is completely unusable. I've installed and uninstalled Adobe, and nothing happened. I just keep getting the black box of death from YT. This started yesterday.
The only browser that works with YouTube now is Internet Explorer. That's right I have to watch YT videos on the shitty IE system. That is total bullshit.
Well, it looks like YT has made a statement about it. ((Hi everyone,
If you're experiencing one of the following problems:
The video player is replaced by a black or white boxColors are splotchyThere’s a green line splitting the player in twoThe seek/navigation bar is missing or displaying incorrectlyThe video stops playing when you change the resolution
...you may be running into a known problem with hardware accelerated video playback in Flash 10.02 hitting a percentage of YouTube users. We're working hard alongside Adobe to get this fixed, but in the meanwhile please visit the following Help Center article for workarounds that will get you back to watching videos:
We realize this has been frustrating, and we really appreciate your patience as we iron out the bumps in this new feature. ))
The little workaround doesn't work. Man, being forced to work with IE is brutal.
