Suddenly today(8/19/2018) Youtube won't play on either of my computers
One computer is new windows 10, the other Windows 7 ... both computers suddenly won't play a Youtube video. It recognizes my account, and when I click on any video it starts to play for 1 second and then goes dark with an error message. I can play successfully using Chrome. I've been a Firefox user for many years ... must I now switch to Chrome? I've tried the suggestion of unchecking performance etc. no luck.
PLEASE HELP
Nick

You could also check the tips in this article: Fix common audio and video issues.
Recently, several users have reported that YouTube generally works more poorly in Firefox since YouTube introduced the "Polymer" design. You could try reverting Firefox to the old design using the following URL or an add-on:
- https://www.youtube.com/?disable_polymer=1
- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-classic/ (I haven't tried this myself)
Any difference?

This meant a lot to me and a million thanks for your help.
