[Pkg-chromium-maint] Bug#602355: chromium-browser: Error when both html5 enabled and signed-in at youtube

[Hongzheng Wang]

Package: chromium-browser
Version: 7.0.544.0~r61416-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I found a really strange problem with the experimental version of the
package.  That is, the browser cannot play in succession videos with
html5 enabled given that I am signed in.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open youtube.com and sign in, and also enable html5
2. Play a video using html5
3. Play another video using html5

What is the expected result?
Both of these videos should be properly played

What happens instead?
An error occurs:
Aw, snap! Something went wrong while displaying this webpage ...

If I didn't sign in or html5 is not enabled, there is no such a problem.
Older version, say 6.0.472, doesn't have this bug too.
