YouTube used to work fine. Then, after recent update to FF61.01, won't work. The page loads, but the video won't play. Works fine on Chrome, Safari. I'm on a Macbook Pro running High Sierra 10.13.6. I unchecked hardware acceleration as per an archived document, then closed out of FF and restarted my whole , no luck. Help?

Clearing the cache, then reloading the YT page -- suggestion I saw on the third page in the above list -- seemed to do the trick. Many thanks.
