youtube issue

[luvitlo]

I can't get youtube to load any clips this morning.
I went to vuevision and can stream live tv fine but youtube won't load anything.
Anyone else having this issue?

Just tried it and failed the first attempt but went the second try, in Robinsonville

I finally got one music video to play after 15 attempts, what is up, are we being blocked again so thart can sell that damn Hero. I am getting pissed, live tv has to take more than a simple youtube video and I hit vuevision and it connects everytime in 5 seconds or less!
Cellular south needs to fix their data service even their version of 3G is junk if I can't watch what I want when I want

YES!!! This worked perfectly. Before I had some working and other not. Now they all work. Thanks so much.

Yeah, it seems that YT changed the video format they send by default to Tours to a format that is only compatible with GSM phones or something. It shouldn't be up to the user to fix this, but what are you going to do?

Why their test video doesn't work is beyond me.

No, Cellular South was not blocking your videos to sell you a phone...
