Cant figure out why its doing this, as soon as I load a youtube video in ff (latest version) it automatically skips to the end and doesnt play. Youtube videos work fine in ie.
Flash is updated to the latest version. I disabled all add ons and it still does it.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Maybe it's just me, but I've been noticing a lot of problems with FF lately. So much that I just uninstalled/reinstalled Google Chrome just so I don't have to deal with FF's shit.

I use Firefox and have been noticing a ton of issues with YouTube. I've been associating them with the recent Google+ integration, especially as others have been having issues.

My two biggest so far have been that some videos refuse to play unless I right-click the blank screen and select "copy link at this time", and then paste that in the address bar. Otherwise the video refuses to buffer no matter what and will not play.

The other started happening this morning, and it is that I can no longer add any videos to any of my playlists, where every time I try I get 'Invalid Request' in a large red bubble. It's been over 12 hours and the problem still hasn't stopped.

I haven't had any issues with youtube on Firefox, and I watch quite a few vids.

and lately with Firefox, same deal. No real issues. I only go to Chrome to translate pages easier.

So it's been two days with Youtube continuing to fuck up on my Firefox. I've already dicked around with all my addons disabled to no effect. Videos refusing to buffer, unable to add any videos to a playlist, unable to change the quality of the video--all of it having issues.

Okay, not only has it been five days with YouTube still fucking up on my machine, now I discover you can't even like a video without getting this message: "Rating is available when the video has been rented." This happens on any generic video.

I've only had two issues with YT on Firefox: if you're watching in full screen and un-fullscreen it a few seconds before the end, the video completely breaks and sometimes changing between full screen and regular breaks it until I change it again.

    I wanna grab a 360 Slim and a 360 E one of these days. Missed the boat of getting them at their lowest though, once they were discontinued. Could've got them for cheap back when I was a broke 20 something working at Target, but then again, I was a broke 20 something working at Target
