Ooh, yes, forgot, run FF's updater just to be certain - I've had two minor FF updates in as many days

Running Win XP sp3 using IE7 Yesterday morning I declined a Flash update clicking "remind me later" Yesterday later I clicked on a stored youtube vid and while the sound is fine there is no picture. Just a black space. If I uninstall Flash and then reinstall it will work for the first vid but then the no pic symptoms reappear. I have tried sys restore (before uninstalling Flash) with no luck and also seen someone else post this problem with Firefox. Anyone got any ideas please ? I have several youtube vids in my favourites !! |

By any chance do you have DivX installed? I found that their web plugin caused the same issue for me in Chrome, so I uninstalled it. Works fine now. |

Possible issues: The VLC media player software plugin has been known to cause problems, as has AVG's (apparently)... Anything blocking a script in Firefox? Or an ad-blocker? I've even seen those stop a YT vid cos of the ads in/around them.... |

I have no idea whether I've got DivX installed mate. Everything worked fine til yesterday though. It's an old pc and has had VLC and AVG on it for years. I've installed no new software at all though AVG did update yesterday and again today I think. As far as I know though absolutely nothing has changed apart from my clicking the "remind me later" box when Adobe tried to update yesterday. What I don't get is why it runs perfectly the first time when I reinstall Flash. It will also let me replay the first vid over and over but as soon as I select a second one it dies. The only other thing I can think of to say is that when it dies the black part of the youtube screen extends down over the pause/play area. I have a feeling it has something to do with yesterdays attempted update as I've seen another thread almost identical to this one of mine in another forum by someone using Firefox. |

Not sure.... I still don't know how it happened to me seeing as I rejected the initial Flash update. |
