YouTube video not displaying on Chrome Web Store

[Antony Courtney]

Hello,

The screenshots for my youtube intro video for my tab manager extension, Tabli, are not displaying on the Tabli page in the Chrome Web Store:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/tabli/igeehkedfibbnhbfponhjjplpkeomghi

The third image in the rotating carousel indicates that it is a "YouTube iframe", but is just a black rectangle -- no video.  This certainly used to work; I don't know when it stopped working.

I entered the URL of my video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRxOr2-urzg) in the "Link to a YouTube video (optional)" entry in the "Screenshots" section of the edit items page.  The video does show up a  thumbnail of screenshots of the edit page.

Is anyone else experiencing this?  Do I perhaps need a different URL format?

Thanks,

    -Antony Courtney

Hi Antony, I'm also facing this issue with my extension. However, your video and mine works on Safari and Firefox browser. It just doesn't work on Chrome browser. Somehow!

The video works for me in both of the cases.

Something seems to have gotten fixed, because it works for me again now too.

Thanks Anthony. It's still happening for me. Not sure if I can attach screenshot here. I'm running Chrome (Version 56.0.2924.87 - 64-bit) for macOS. It shows the video snapshot for split second, before turning black. Hovering cursor on the black image says YouTube iframe.

I just hope and assume that it is just something wrong with my system and other users are not experiencing it. I'm not too worried because it is quite unimaginable such a 'bug' can hit Chrome browser while Safari and Firefox works.

Hi Ken,

The symptoms you are seeing are exactly consistent with what was happening to me when I reported the issue.

I just tried your page and the embedded video works for me.

I don't know if it's a Chrome browser issue, but interestingly I have a slightly later version of Chrome than you:  Version 57.0.2987.133 (64-bit) (on macOS).

Thanks very much Antony for your tip and additional info. I force an update of my Chrome on macOS to your version and it now works for me as well! =)

This issue is happening to me too.

Youtube video not appearing in my chrome extension listing page on the chromestore.

Link - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/brieftube-instant-video-s/gfckdcbnnkobldfaefmhaigdolfniill

[PhistucK]

Works for me. If you watch the video in YouTube itself (not embedded in the web store) - does it play?

☆PhistucK

[dror Yaffe]

yes, of course. All I see is a black blank screen.

When opening same chrome store page but using safari the video works correctly .

[PhistucK]

I am not sure I understand.

"yes, of course" on one hand, and "All I see is a black blank screen" on the other hand.

Does it play correctly on YouTube itself?

Hi Yaffe, adding on, have you tried forcing an update to Chrome? (going to About Chrome to manually initiate an update) I was facing this issue as well and following Antony's tip it now works for me. Now running Chrome - Version 57.0.2987.133 (64-bit) (on macOS)

Thanks.
