So I'm having some weird technical problems with youtube.

[Raven-Glock]

Surprised? I'm not.

Regardless, Youtube for some reason has been shitting out on me of late. Whenever I try to view a video via their website it simply loops itsself in the beginning, and seems to skip 3-7 second intervals before resetting. Basically, I get a black screen, some weird audio that starts but can't watch any further. Embedding works fine, it's not adobe either because I use Google Chrome, automatic updates.

This has become a nuisance since I can't watch or hear Vika play her badass piano covers or watch fat people make a fool of themselves.

Also to note, switching tabs seems to make the audio work, as for the video, I DON'T KNOW CAUSE I CAN'T SEE LOLOL.

Help is appreciated

It sounds like maybe an issue with your display driver. After you get the black screen do you get a message along the lines of "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"? It usually pops up in a ballon at the task bar in the bottom right corner of the screen (at least for Windows 7). I'm guessing this is the problem as I have the same issue at work and I have similar symptoms sometimes. It's due to faulty drivers. Even if you're not getting this message it might be a good idea to try and reinstall your graphics card drivers just in case.

Yeah, they've added hardware acceleration methinks.

LoBo; I had that. Turned out to be a defective vROM.

LoBo: Does not say anything

Also have found out that the steam browser works fine with youtube.
