Anyone Else Suffering the New YouTube Layout?
13 years ago
= - =From chatting with a few friends so far, I seem to the only one that has ANOTHER new layout change on YouTube. It basically switched me over a few hours ago without any warning; just POOF! New Layout!
Usually I don't mind these layout changes; just weird things they do. But this one is proving to be particularly... special. Special in the sense that it's actually succeeding in pissing me off.
Don't know why, but now every vid that has an advertisement at the start - which is practically HALF the videos on YouTube - now won't play the ad at all! ... And therefore won't play the video because I can't suffer/skip through the ad! ...
WHY DOES TECHNOLOGY HATE ME SO MUCH?! T..T *goes to bed and doodles himself to sleep*

You might try uninstalling/reinstalling flash and try clearing it's cache, all its saved files (Sorry, I don't know how to do this, I'd just google it).
Your problem sounds like one I was having around two years ago, where if a video wasn't ad-protected, it played just fine, but for videos with ads the ad would just freeze/stop playing 15 seconds or so through it.
The problem just went away on its own.
Problem managed to fix itself some time this evening, though I don't know if it had anything to do with Flash. Though Flash has been giving me a crap-ton of issues, probably because my comp is full of gunk that clogs up the tubes. 9..9 I may have to try that; it may help with the constant Shockwave Flash crashes that seem to plague Chrome. :)
