[FIXED]Cannot Watch YouTube Videos With NoScript 2.6.9.26rc1

Post by barbaz »

Something changed in NoScript 2.6.9.26rc1 that YouTube videos stopped working for me.

URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MSAztV0apQ

Using YouTube's Flash player, it immediately says "An error occurred, please try again later."
Using YouTube's HTML5 player, it spins around........ then says "An error occurred, please try again later."

Giorgio, do you still have my NoScript config around from last time I reported a YouTube/NoScript bug?

(see also viewtopic.php?f=10&t=20829 - but this doesn't seem like the same problem as that.)

It still seems to be your anonymization rules.
Specifically the following suffices to break the player:

Code: Select all

Site .youtube.com .ytimg.com .googlevideo.com
Anonymize
I'm investigating whether it's a bug or it's become too effective.

YouTube's Flash player works but the HTML5 player is still broken.
EDIT I enable Media Source Extensions in the browser FWIW.

FYI,

NoScript 2.6.9.26rc3 is now available at AMO, I've updated several Profiles.

A few hours ago, NoScript 2.6.9.26rc2 was NOT at AMO, but I could get it from the Feed:
https://noscript.net/feed?c=200&t=a

As I write, the Feed shows rc2 but NOT rc3.
