Starting today, when people post videos, they are now showing as a black box. They always used to work until today and I don't know what changed between today & yesterday when it was working. Any suggestions or help??

Hmm, so when you look at a Youtube video like below, then it is just black?
It is still working fine for me on an old ipad and a new iphone.

I've been having the same problem, for about a week.
I thought it was just me as no-one else was saying anything - like my work started blocking it or something.
Dana, it looks like this:

Yes, up below, all I see is a black rectangle using google chrome on a laptop on two different laptops. I've tried Microsoft Edge on one of them as well and the same result.

Works on Chrome on my Samsung phone though.

The weird thing was it always worked until one day it stopped. I just can't figured out what changed

Thanks for the help

Maybe something behind the scenes changed?

When adding a video just place the end inbetween the code.
