Solved Video Playback(Youtube) Problem with FIX!

[ronott1]

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?

The message says that it is not in a supported file format. It is likely encoded in a format that chrome can't render in html 5.

I can't get the video to play on my tablet with 7.1 and chrome. It does play on the same tablet with firefox so the problem is not with Android 7 but with chrome

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.

What still bothers me is I have two videos uploaded with in minutes of each other and only one shows this error.

Did you encode them the same? If so, then remove the one that does not work and upload the video again. Pay attention to the format it encodes it too.

I found the nerd info @Cyprus

Eta...I had to turn the nerd option on.

What the heck does encode mean?
I clicked upload to YouTube the exact same button for both videos???

Use Vimeo instead.....

We have been trying to figure this out all day.

It has to be a glitch in Youtube.

Is that the video files for the bad one, Kiki?

Can you take a screenshot of a video that does work to compare?
