theninjamanz 29 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 When trying to get to youtube inside ubot I get the following message: The Adobe Flash Player or an HTML5 supported browser is required for video playback. Get the latest Flash Player Learn more about upgrading to an HTML5 browser Now I have installed Flash and IE tells me it is running fine. In fact when I try and goto youtube in the browser it works fine. Win Server 2008R2IE 9.08Latest Flash installed. Thanks for your help.Ninjamanz. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Legend 181 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Have you tried changing the user agent? http://www.ubotstudio.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Right...Youtube is funny like that. You can try Safari, IE8, IE9 John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a2mateit 395 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 I find that Chrome seems to work well too... Perhaps because it is a fellow g00gle product. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theninjamanz 29 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Thanks all, no joy here. Tried switching agents to IE9m Safari, Chrome and even Firefox. I am wondering if there is some kind of security thing in place that would stop the IE session from ubot running anywhere outside a normal browser session. Seems to work fine when I select Android.

theninjamanz 29 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Did some more digging around and found that if I goto this page: http://www.youtube.com/html5/ UNder the section "What does my browser support" within a ubot browser - irrespective of the user agent - I have Video Tag ticked, but h.264 and WebM unticked. So I went and installed https://tools.google.com/dlpage/webmmf But this brings no joy either. However if I go and open proper browser sessions, EG IE9 I get the told that my browser supports Video Tag, H.264 and WebM. What's that all about then!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theninjamanz 29 Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Sorted it out. The problem it seems is to do with the way the Flash player installs. http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ I selected Win7, and then other browsers and installed that version instead. Now it is working. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a2mateit 395 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Glad you got it sorted out. Threads like this can help others identify possible problems with different systems. Seems like there is alot of threads around here similar to this one. Maybe somebody could make one big thread of possible solutions to the different problems scattered around the forum... Just an idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 This thread has been pinned. Thanks ninja for the solution! http://www.ubotstudio.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ronaldod 4 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 As a note it is call "PPAPI" Flash player if you want to know if it is installed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
