Bug#596895: gnash: Some YouTube videos still don't work with 0.8.8-2, even though all are supposed to be supported.

[Soren Stoutner]

Package: gnash
Version: 0.8.8-2
Severity: normal


0.8.8-2 is supposed to be able to play all youtube videos, but there are a few that still don't play.  For example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLOzu5XY-nw

The controls for the video appear at the bottom, but the video itself doesn't display.  Only a black rectangle with the text:

"An error occurred, please try again later"

Both Konqueror and Iceweasel have this problem.  I deleted all cookies on both browsers as suggested in the release notes.
A certain proprietary implimentation of the flash player displays this video correctly, so it is not a problem with
youtube's servers.
