@lapzap On which platform and brave version are you seeing this issue? I just tried it on windows 10 x64 - 0.61.52 - It’s working fine without any ssue.
Thanks!
I am getting the same error. Happens on every single YouTube video and then after a few seconds the video starts playing. Only started happening recently. I am on Windows 10 build 17134 and Brave 0.61.52
@lapzap @MDesigns Can you try it on latest released version 0.62.50 and see whether you are able to reproduce the issue?
@lapzap Are you seeing this issue on a clean profile or upgraded profile. If you are able to reproduce the issue consistently can you provide the steps, please?
Thanks!
@gsarvadnya yep, same issue on 0.62.50.
The issue does not seem to happen in a private browser window if that helps at all.
That does help actually. Can you try clearing all YT site data and trying again? Seems like this could be a simple caching issue. To do this:
- Visit Youtube.com, click the “lock” icon on the left side of the address bar
- Select
Site Settingsin the drop-down panel, scroll to the bottom and select “Reset Permissions” – this will clear any permissions/settings you have for YT. - Now, open settings and search for
Content Settings --> Cookies --> All site data- (alternatively, you can navigate to
Menu --> Settings --> Advanced --> Privacy and Security --> Content Settings --> Cookies --> All site data
- (alternatively, you can navigate to
- Search this page for
youtubeoryoutube.comand remove all this data.
Now, return to Youtube and try to stream content and let us know if the issue appears as it did before.
@Mattches Steps 4/5 did the trick, thanks!
You’re very welcome!
