Youtube videos doesn't play anymore

more options

Hi all.

Since some days the HTML5 YT player doesn't work anymore to me. The videos keep "loading" (black screen) for 30 seconds or so. After that, a text message appears (see image attached)

I copy the video link to Chrome and it works just fine. I've tried the following things I found here:

- Updating FF - Updating Flash Player - Deleting temporal files - Start FF in safe mode - Checking Flash Player is active (in Plugins) - Checking all boxes are blue in the YouTube's HTML5 test page - Checking the "Fix common audio and video issues", but couldn't find a solution

I installed the extension to force YT to use the Flash based player, and it works ok. So the problem is with the "modern" player (HTML5).

I really apreciated any help with this. Oh, and Merry Christmas to all this amazing community! :)
