Ask HN: Is YouTube back to using flash?
- snehesht 11y agoon Firefox 40.0.3 ( http://i.imgur.com/11q4z79.png http://i.imgur.com/11q4z79.png ) Compare these two videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQl3WQQoQ0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLQl3WQQoQ0 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd3kSdu4W7c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd3kSdu4W7c The first one requires flash but the second one doesn't need it.
- techjuice 11y agoBoth videos load the HTML5 player for me. Try updating your cookies cookie set VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE Q06SngRDTGA To see if you still get the switching between the HTML5 player and flash.
- snehesht 11y agothanks, I removed the VISITOR_INFO_LIVE and it's working. I think the problem was with my Firefox sync. I recently switched to firefox after 1 year of using chrome.I think the sync overwrote the cookies as well.
