When I try to view the embedded video on this page, I get a black box. In certain situations, I get a black box but audio plays. The video plays fine when I view it directly on youtube however. Yes, I've already disabled hardware acceleration like a solution said in another question with this issue. It did NOT solve the issue.

I'm using the HTML5 player of course.

Yes, apparently, somehow without my knowledge, uBlock Origin added youtube.com##player as a cosmetic filter.

No problem here I clicked the link and the browser and video shows up. Are you sure your addons or security software isn't blocking it.
