gritineye Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) Thinking about this, I often get flash player popping up with updates, if you don't get these this bit might be the answer, Temporarily disable pop-up blocking software installed on your computer, to test. Allow youtube.com?hl=en_GB as a trusted site in your Firewall software. Ensure that other applications such as QuickTime, iTunes, Real Player or Windows Media Player aren't set as the default streaming application, as this might affect the video player.

AndyFowler Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Hi Bernard , thanks for taking the time to reply mate ! I tried updating the flash player thingy yesterday and hadn't had much success ! I have just got in and read your latest advice and prepared for another battle of will with the computer and thought I'd just make sure it still didn't work when a miracle has happened over night and the bl--dy thing has fixed itself ! THIS IS WHY I LOVE OLD STUFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad: Thanks again mate ! Hope Forceful and son of Forceful are behaving themselves !

gritineye Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Perhaps you should get down to the Cuckoo Fair at Laughton with your camcorder to get some footage in the can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
