If it's a problem with Flash player, try to use HTML5 player instead. Turn off Flash plugin at the about:addons page, and try again.

    Go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and if there is a button "Request the HTML5 player", click it. – user300458 Jul 07 '14 at 11:57
  • still shows the error screen and asks for flash activation. And by clicking that button, the browser supports are HTMLVideoElement and WebM VP8. rest of the Media Source Extensions, MSE & H.264, MSE & WebM VP9 are not supported – theDistantStar Jul 07 '14 at 16:02
