Hello everyone,
For a few days now, I've been having problems with YouTube and video playback.
In a few words:
1. The progress bar indicating the loading of the video suddenly appears as if the entire video is already loaded, and the download progress no longer appears; we can no longer see the loading progress.
2. In this state, when I try to forward a video by 1 minute, 2.34 minutes, or 10 minutes, it doesn't matter, the cursor goes to the position I want, but the video content systematically returns to the beginning, making it impossible to watch a video at a specific point!!! It always restarts from the beginning!!!!
From this observation, I conducted the following tests:
A. Disabled the Chrome extension related to YouTube, "Turn Off the Lights," in this case.
RESULT = > Problem persists
B. Browsed in "Privacy" mode (CTRL+SHIFT+N).
RESULT = > YouTube works well!!!
I then decided to log out of my Google account, to be "anonymous" while still using Chrome fully.
C. Browsed in standard mode (Not logged into my Google account)
RESULT = > Problem persists
So I decided to test YouTube on IE version 8.0.6001 ...
D. Used YouTube with IE
RESULT = > YouTube works well!!!
Finally, based on that, I did one last test under Chrome but using the "IE-Tab" extension.
E. Used YouTube with IE-Tab (Chrome extension allowing the use of the IE engine within Chrome’s interface)
RESULT = > YouTube works well!!!
In short, in conclusion, I would say that I have a "partial" problem with Chrome (or Flash), but I can't figure out where it comes from!!!
I searched a bit online, including the help forum and incident alerts at Google, but I haven't found anything substantial except a few people experiencing the problem, and all requests for info remained unanswered!!!!
Could someone please help us???
Thank you in advance, looking forward to your replies!!!

Thank you very much Romaric for the idea, I hadn't thought of that.
Now, the question is "why"?
But the main thing is that it worked.
Thanks again
