Unable to view some live youtube sites

more options

While trying to view "Hurricane Barry Mission Day 4 - Vehicle Cam", "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Otx7ZJUDStw" on youtube I cannot see the video just the progress circle. The chat portion is viewable and actively updated. I am viewing this on a Mac running high sierra. I also have a linux workstation which has no problems displaying the feed and is on the same network.

Can anyone offer an explanation?

I found the problem. It appears it was related to Apples Cloudd process which I do not used. I have disable the process and I am able to play the site. it is worth noting that I could play some live sites but not other suggesting it was filtering.

Does your Firefox on Mac support H.264/MP4 video? YouTube has a test page here: https://www.youtube.com/html5
