Youtube not playing videos

Hey guys, looking for some help.

Whenever I go on Youtube, the videos begin playing like normal, but when I change the resolution, I get the "An error occurred. Please try again later." message.

I've updated flash player, shockwave and opera.

It occurs on Opera, Chrome, and IE (only browsers I have installed).

If you need any more info please ask. Thanks for the help.

Try playing a video then right clicking on the video and select settings. Then under display settings try un-checking "Hardware acceleration"

This helped me when youtube was being moody.

Well first off I would recommend getting rid of those browsers and going OPEN SOURCE to Firefox. Give that a try.

Other solutions that have been suggested:

 

1) Clear cache

2) Clear cookies

3) Youtube videos can be opened in pop-out mode (i.e. right click on video) in chrome at least that seemed to fix my buffer issue until it magically started working again

I found the issue. We had a sprint airrave (boosts connection in our house) that wasn't allowing youtube through it's router. Plugged my modem straight to my router and everything worked again.
