Is anyone else having issues with playing trailers in Theater View or Standard View?

Either nothing happens at all in standard view or I get the "There is nothing to play" message in Theater View. I am running the latest version of MC 33. Trailers as of a few weeks ago were working fine and then I noticed they stopped working suddenly. I confirmed that the webmedia links are tagged for each movie, and that they correspond to the correct trailer in YouTube. I tried deleting the youtube folder in App Data, which forced MC to reinstall the components, but that sill did not help. I also did a complete reinstall of MC, except for registry keys. I also tried doing this from another laptop with MC 33 installed as a client to the library server on the computer in question, and it sill would not play. I also confirmed that my firewall is not the problem.

Any ideas?

YouTube moved the goalposts, again.

I've begun sourcing trailers to keep locally, but that's a job and a half in itself. They are not easy to find.

Good to know. I didn't see anyone else post it so wasn't sure if it was something about my PC or network being the issue.

Another way around this issue could be to add playing the trailer from the spotlight view. Could that just use the web view and that way, in theory, it would always work with YouTube? Then remove the Trailer link in Theater View and move the Spotlight option next to the Showtime option for easier access.
