Title: Youtube again
Post by: zenpmd on February 01, 2015, 03:22:34 pm: I recently logged in via youtube via JRiver, both for connecting the app and then logging in in the virtual web page itself.

Now I can neither watching youtube vids in JRiver (just shows complete red bar and says error occured), or in youytube in the browser - the video plays but no sound.

Either way, Matt posted:

You could try the WDM driver but that's something else.

Actually, if you're also playing something in MC, then it should:

Post by: akira54 on February 02, 2015, 02:36:28 am: I had the same thing happen to me a few days ago. YouTube videos would not play and when I then tried watching them in my browser all sound was gone, despite having completely quit MC.

If that is the case, then it would be a bug in your audio device drivers, not in MC. Particularly if you actually closed MC down.

It could be, conceivably, related to this:

Post by: zenpmd on February 02, 2015, 10:00:21 am: I often get the "installation cannot get completed" message. That shouldn't be happening.

I have, however, deactivated the wdm thing.

Are you using an up to date browser?
