Unable to play clips inserted into boards

BattleCorp · 2013-04-08 18:22:46

When I try play a youtube clip in boards, the screen is white. I can hear sounds but can't view the clip properly. Any ideas what is wrong and how to fix it? Youtube works fine if I open it outside of boards.

Which browser?

Flash Player/Plugin up to date?

Try without hardware acceleration (right click inside a flash video > Settings).

It could be a number of things, but as the poster above me said, maybe check that your flash player is up to date. However, maybe your computer is overcrowded (on it's hard drive)?
