Re: [Gnash-dev] Re: Youtube support thoughts

[strk]

FYI, I've been running for some time now with a version
set to "8.0 r99" and hardly found videos not working.

Instead, I've been struggling with another problem being
a 403 (permission denied) error from the actual yt webserver
serving the flv videos. This one was always fixed by deleting
the cookies coming from youtube.com. Did anyone see that ?

The symptom is a message:

 "An error occurred, please try again later."

shown by the gnash player where the video should be.
This message always appears when the cookie is sent,
so after a cookie clear you can see a video only
the first time (and a page reload gives you that
error message).
