youtube video not loading, only sound
I have recently (as of the last couple of days) encountered a problem with loading YouTube videos. The symptoms of the problem seem to be well known and the problem frequent however this is what I have experienced:
-YouTube fails to load video of flash file but audio loads no problem -YouTube videos embedded on another website load fine -Any objects seen on top of YouTube videos leave a marker on the screen (IE timebar does not go away, time readout bubble clones)
I have seen that this problem is common and broswed many forums for some advice, so far here is what I have carried out: -Clear the cache -'the cookie dance' -Run a system defrag -Restart the computer -Turn it on and off again -Force shutdown and then start -Tried Mozilla in safe mode, in safe mode with only addons -Uninstalled Mozilla (keeping preferences) and reinstalling -Uninstalled Mozilla (deleting preferences) and reinstalling

Did that start after updating Flash to version 10.2 r152 ?
You can try to install the previous Flash 10.1 r102 version to see if that works.
You can also try to clear the Flash cookies and settings (LSO).
Flash Website Storage Settings panel:
See also Flash Local storage settings:
A youtube or Firefox bug. Delete all cookies from youtube cookies first > open firefox tools> options> privacy> firefox will: choose in drop down box:use custom settings for history>
show cookies> delete youtube cookies
in box:accept cookies from sites> choose exceptions> add:http://www.youtube.com> click ok at bottom. Firefox will no longer accept cookies from youtube.
This is a temporary until bug is fixed.

FF/WinXP, same problem, tried the cookie exclusion thing, which works, sort of, but really needed a solution that allows me to log-in. Have since read similar bug reports for Safari/Mac, and when I upgraded from an earlier to latest version of Chrome/WinXP, it immediately happened to me again, blank YouTube player, audio only.
Chrome has (separate) latest version of Flash player built in, and Firefox was similarly using latest version - ver. 10.2.152.32 or thereabouts.
I uninstalled Flash player, rebooted(optional) and installed an older version of Flash available from here, Adobe archive:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
I picked a likely looking candidate, ver 10.1.102.64, unzipped and installed appropriate binaries.
YouTube now working (audio/video all fine, logged in and am accepting youtube cookies).
Can't speak to root cause, but seeing it across multiple browsers/platforms, I'd start looking at YouTube/Adobe for a fix, but the rollback seems to work for now.
