Yesterday, I noticed that none of the YouTube videos on my site would play. For example, when I clicked on one of these videos, nothing happended, but there was a message at the bottom of Firefox that said Waiting for gdata.youtube.com….
All of these videos use AllVideos Reloaded to display YouTube videos on my Joomla website. And, they were all using the JW Music Player instead of the YouTube Original Player. When I switched the player to YouTube Original, it fixed the problem.
To fix this problem, open the Joomla article with the YouTube videos and change this code:
{youtubejw width=”640″ height=”385″}video-number{/youtubejw}
to this code:
{youtube width=”640″ height=”385″}video-number{/youtube}
Important: If you are adding a new YouTube video using AllVideos Reloaded, select
Note: This is probably not a bug with AllVideos Reloaded; more likely, YouTube has changed something that broke the JW player’s ability to load YouTube videos.
