Re: Not able to play a video? What's your error message?

SADvids

Yeah, I was beginning to think that too. Although, it's not happening
to any of my friends, but it seems to be reported around the internet
alot in the last week. I wonder if it's an Australian problem? Nothing
works in IE, either. Although, one time I did get a video to work in
Flock that didn't in firefox, but then others stopped loading in all
browsers. It's happening on both my computers. I'm wondering if I
should contact TPG, my ISP?

Also I disabled all my addins for firefox, and still the same issue.
Upgraded to Flash Player 10 beta, and re-installed Java, same issue.

I wish YouTube would acknowledge this problem, it's too widespread and
ongoing for them to do and say nothing about it.
