Is there something wrong with BYC's YouTube proxy?

[WannaBeHillBilly]

Since this afternoon i am unable to watch any embedded YT video through the BYC site. It just that rotating circle thing forever and then comes back with a generic error message :

Sorry for the German, the message just says »There was an error. (Playback ID: TwoZAGaL3yBytWQH)

If i open the videos directly in YT (watch in YT) it works just fine, so i doubt that it is my internet connection.
Best regards from Charleston (WV),

I found the link to the album and all of your videos play for me.

You're in California, i am located in the East. There are very likely other proxy-servers involved.
Are you playing the videos within the BYC page or do you click on the YT link and watch them directly on YT?

Just tried to play a video embedded in BYC on my mobile phone with Wifi turned off and the result is the same: Embedded it won't play, straight from YT it works just fine.

Do you have an add blocker running?

@Lacy Duckwing, you're on the east coast. Can you help? Does this play for you?

Yes, it works for me. I clicked your link, and it worked there. Then I went to the video on the YouTube app, and it played there too.
