I get this every time I try to play an embedded YouTube clip in a post on here. Anyone know why?

Maybe you have some form of restrictions enabled with your browser?

I just use Chrome, it seemed to change a few days ago...

I'll try to check settings.

Do you use an add blocker? I think YouTube were cracking down on them recently and blocking people using them from the site.

No, no ad blockers. Pop ups are blocked, but that wouldn't affect YouTube vids would it?

Could be that.

Not quite the same, but whenever I click an embedded YouTube link on here, the video plays but with no sound. If I watch it in the YouTube app, it works fine.

It didn't used to work if you weren't logged in. I've no idea if they've fixed that problem yet.

Just cleared cache and cookies and it seems to have sorted it.
