Youtube Comments on Firefox using Noscript and ABP

All videos display a "Comments currently unavailable" message with the comments frame collapsed. Temporarily allowing Noscript on the entire page doesn't fix it. Disabling ABP on the entire page doesn't fix it. I'm sure millions of users use the same combination of add-ons on Firefox, so how do you guys enable the youtube comments section?

Looks like they do a delayed load on some of their content, so not all the required domains will display at once (then there are some dependencies too).

This set looks to get comments working:

Code: Select all

+googleapis.com
+googletagservices.com
+google.com
+ytimg.com
+youtube.com

Thanks therube. I'll have to research how to allow those scripts only on youtube. Don't want to enable them on all sites.
