• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Youtube videos not always initializing correctly

Maybe 25% of the time I load a thread, YouTube video's just display as a static image. I have to reload the page and it usually (but not always) shows up with the interactive buttons and header.

Have not noticed a pattern yet. Anyone else experiencing this?
 
Can you please link some example thread?
 
It's a random thing and works upon reloading.

Looks like it happens in Firefox the easiest for me.

When I scroll over the embedded media with Chrome or IE, I first see it as a static image, but then see it trigger and load the interactive buttons. But with Firefox it doesn't always trigger correctly.

EDIT: The flash warning at the top of the page does not affect it.

This is now fixed, hopefully :).
I disable Defer loading for embedded content until it's visible.
