YouTube: I have sound but no image.

Solved

Hello,

When I try to watch a video on YouTube, I can hear the sound perfectly and see the playback controls, but I have a black screen.

I don't have this problem when I play the embedded video on another site.

I read in the help center that I should disable "hardware acceleration" in the settings by right-clicking on the video. However, when I right-click on the video (on the black screen, as indicated), I don't see the "Settings" option.

Can you help me resolve this issue, please? My version of Adobe Flash is up to date.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 33.0.1750.117

Thank you.

    Hello, for me it was an extension. It was Adblock Plus (on Google Chrome).
    • Just click on the three little lines in the upper right corner (on Windows).
    • Choose: more tools... extensions...
    • Disable all extensions by unchecking them.
    • Quit Chrome... Reconnect.
    • Try your video.

    It should be fine..
    • Now check the extensions one by one, then view your video again.
    • Once you find the problematic extension, trash it (on the right).
    • Then click on -more extensions- at the bottom of the window, and reinstall your extension.

    There you go... I hope I was able to help you.
