PKF & YouTube

Has anyone noticed any problems with embedded YouTube videos on PKF?

YouTube recently seems to have changed from using the "object" tag to "iframes" and PKF forum software seems to be none too pleased with it.

What browser / platform you running? Anything change on your end recently?

Fixed..... Flash update from earlier this week doesn't like YouTube. Adobe must have patched it within the last 2 or 3 days. Updating Flash again fixed it.

Sometimes have to type things out to get the brain firing on all cylinders.

Glad you got it sorted out :)

I'm pretty sure the <object> tag is international. Even if YouTube changes to iframes, object will still work.

Willard, I am jealous of your flying spot. In all my years I hath never been grace'ed with a steady wind. You guys on the coast have it easy :ninja:

Whine whine whine whine :lol: if only my toilet was made of solid gold.

I would gladly trade a solid gold crapper for epic on shore wind for a week.:tumble:
And think I just ripped some poor sap off.:rolleyes:

i just noticed i have to take the tag out of the addy bar now.... when i try to share from the video, they have some weird code that doesnt work here....

i had the same problem in ie... i run firefox now, much happier lol

...when firefox gets slow, move to chrome... works for many. Not sure how YT / chrome interact... Moot for me anyways, I'm behind the great chinese firewall for a few weeks here, dang I miss my YT kite fix already!!!

and vimeo blocked as well.... at least reddit and deviantart are still untouched... Yes!
