YouTube thing

[Ⓐaron]

I added a link above the YouTube videos in case the videos won't load for people. For some reason the embed code isn't working anymore on my desktop. I think it's Chrome's fault, but I'm too lazy to check in other browsers or on my other computer. They work fine on my phone. If anyone else is having embed problems let me know. I tried a bunch of different methods and none of them worked.

Anyway the link thing was something I'd been intending to do for awhile (it's more convenient for people with FlashBlock) but never got around to it. I'll probably introduce an option to put a custom title there at some point too.

EDIT: Working on my end, in Chrome.

Yeah it must be an issue with my computer. :/

You're too lazy to check if the vids work in other browsers yet not too lazy to go in and add new code to the forums? Wouldn't it have been easier the other way around? lol

Thanks, though.

I have too much crap open; I'd have to close some to open other browsers

No problem

 

[Tennyo]

Close your damn tabs, silly.

 

[Ⓐaron]

it's not just tabs (although I definitely have too many of those open); it's other applications too

I was wondering why they suddenly started looking like the format over on FFOF today.

lol, problem for Aaron = problem for everyone.

but I'm getting used to it now

I'm not sure why Chrome stopped loading YouTube videos for me but in any case I like having the link there so I can open it in new tabs without having to disable FlashBlock or quote the post

Browsers are meant to be restarted every few weeks

 

[Hisako]

Everything youtube works fine for me

Spoiler

on Internet Explorer

 

[Ⓐaron]

I restarted my entire computer since my previous post. It still isn't working

I would've eventually done this anyway though since it kind of defeats the purpose of FlashBlock if you have to load the video to open the link to YouTube

I like what you did, because lately, YouTube videos haven't been showing up in posts when I browse the forums on my phone. This fix, however, always provides a link that shows up.

I'm actually quite surprised the ye olde embed code is still working after all these years,

That is odd. Especially since the reason why I started using Chrome is because YouTube videos stopped working in Firefox.

It could also be that I never closed Firefox.

But I never close Chrome, either, and it doesn't fuck my laptop up.

Firefox had an incompatibiliy issue with one version of Flash, it's been resolved now. Get the latest of both and it'll be fine.

Mage. you talking tech is hot.

Even when I spell incompatibility wrong?
