Solved Video Playback(Youtube) Problem with FIX!

What is the latest chrome version?

No clue.


Looking at them now.



I think it's more like it's too much trouble and the code jockeys are lazy buggers.

Newest Chrome version is in green:

Newest Android available right now is 8.1

Make sure you pay attention to the version when you buy a new device.
They sell brand new devices with older versions.

9.7 times out of 10 when someone has a problem on this website it is related to their device (unsupported/older) version.

Android 7 is about to not be supported.

Upgrading android comes from the phone manufacturer. Some are bad about making updates available. Often you can't get an android update unless you get a new phone.

Google phones are an exception of course.

Let me see if I can find the information on the number of each android level....This is from May of 2018

As you can see, nearly no one is on 8 and up yet. 9 is not even on the list.

It is rather silly to cut out 7 and below on this site.

See what I posted, 95% of android users are 7.1 and lower. Can we call that outdated?

We live in a weirs world LOL!

What I wanna know is what is different about yours and @Pyxis's videos? Why do all other videos work and those two don't?

I'm not taking about this site not supporting Android 7...Im talking about Android itself not supporting 7 for much longer. They don't give an end date for the support but I am sure it will be here sooner rather than later.

They do this...not support their own stuff...to force people to buy new.

We have been trying to figure this out all day.

It has to be a glitch in Youtube.

That’s what I’m curious about. We’ve settled it’s an app and chrome issue that can’t really be solved (besides getting another browser) but I’m still wondering what sets the problem videos apart.
I read on a jargon filled coding forum that sometimes HTML5 audio files get corrupted or something and if that is the problem, then having the uploader mute their YouTube video (so it has no audio file at all, maybe you can do that in the upload settings) can solve it.

I will try this now.
