Title: Youtube Black Screen
Post by: 11clock on March 20, 2011, 01:20:18 PM
A lot of the videos on Youtube appear as black screens. I can hear the audio, but I can't see the video. Is there a way to fix this?

Are you using an adblock extension/addon for your browser, what is your browser?

I use Google Chrome. I have AdBlock, but I turned it off and that didn't work.

This happened to me a lot on Google Chrome, but when I scrolled with the mouse wheel, it appeared.

Did you try refreshing the page after you turned off the adblock? I pause adblock and refresh the page and it works fine for the videos.

Yeah this is an error in Google Chrome with the AdBlock Youtube beta. It still occurs even when disabled though. If you wait a minute or two the screen will change back to normal or you can keep refreshing until it fixes.
