    I had started a youtube thread asking about youtube play troubles.

    Can anyone see if this link play in app and browser?



    I get a video error-video cannot be played in both of our playbooks, seems to be a common trouble for popular videos-is this a drm problem?

    Thanks.

    Now it works in the browser (slowly) not the app, very disappointing to have a buggy basic app. It plays it my ipad, itouch and iphone, without a hiccup. I have done all the fixes recommended, and don't know why the problem persists. I guess I could reinstall OS, but since I have 40 gigs of info on it it will be time consuming even with a back up done.

    I clicked on your link and the video came up and started playing almost immediately. No problem, no jittery pauses. It just played smoothly here over my home wifi.

    Like one of the other guys said, what a sweet blast from the past.

    Before doing a security wipe (which would wipe out your data, therefore requiring a time-consuming backup before the wipe and restoring from the backup after the wipe), try restarting the PB, then try restarting the router with the idevices all turned off, if that doesn't work, try resetting your home router to its factory default settings, then set your password, then try to connect the PB using WPS. If none of that works, I would call the PlayBook support line.
