Tom, You need to join the html5 video player beta test first and even after that not all videos will work. See:�[2]https://www.youtube.com/html5
Really? I have never need to specifically enable it.
Our warning page says so (bullet c): https://www.torproject.org/download/download#warning
Some videos actually work after this.
Some videos don't automatically work, but if you go to share->embed, and get the embed URL, they do. But most videos I try work for HTML5 without enabling. Curious.
I did not know about this. It's a lot better to remove the "v" variable and use /embed/VideoID instead of joining the html5 test because it will make every video play.
For example:
This video won't play even if you join the html5 test page. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjK1lUA6mGk
but using embed it will work: https://www.youtube.com/embed/gjK1lUA6mGk
Thanks!
