issues with youtube

Post by cresun »

i've had this occur several times when browsing youtube, and it's getting quite damn annoying

right now i'm unable to load the page http://www.youtube.com/searchstories with NoScript enabled, despite the fact that the whole page is (temporarily) allowed

it seems to load several background elements at first while the page remains blank, and then it just stops while waiting for http://googleanalytics.com

the page loads fine when i disable NoScript

additional extensions installed :

Some of the youtube pages require additional domains to be allowed. In addition to NoScript's default whitelist and settings, I had to allow the following domains, either temporarily or permanently. Temporarily allow all this page may not catch them all.
appspot.com
google-analytics.com
googleapis.com
googlecode.com
youtube.com
ytimg.com

I've added all of them to my permanent whitelist.
You also should update to the current version, NoScript 1.9.9.61. Tools > Add-ons > Extensions > Find Updates

Everything is permanently allowed now and I've got the latest update, but the flash content in the upper section of http://www.youtube.com/searchstories is still not loading with NoScript enabled

Yes, it works for me as soon as I allow all the above domains.
To be safer, rather than the whole appspot.com, I'd allow searchstories.appspot.com and searchstories-static.appspot.com individually.

Have you got latest Flash Player?
Could you check what happens if you disable all the other extensions?
If that helps could you try Standard Diagnostic?
If it doesn't, could you use NoScript Options|Reset, then reallow all the above?

Change made, thank you.
