Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Black bars - no video ? Can any computer guru's make heads or tails of this ?

This comes from Trapperman website , a member there is having the same trouble as many here are with Youtube video's and the black bar instead of video.

Sirdude is a problem solver -I can't figure out if this BBCode is for posting video's or seeing posted video's ?

Where would the "regex" get pasted so that the codes match ?

Curious, what web browsers are you folks using that are having trouble?

Im using Chrome. Tried Firefox and its the same way.

Chrome

IE.

chrome.

Chrome

I see the black bar on Safari but don't when I use Firefox. I just get to see all the pop-up adds or Firefox that I don't have to see on Safari. I would rather see the black bars than all the pop-ups so I keep Safari.

hmmmmmmm something has changed.

I got black bars for a couple days with Chrome and Safari. Everything seems okay now.

Chrome/Ad blocker+ .

I have it also,IE

I emptied cache, updated Firefox to version 48 and Adobe Flash. There was an additional plug in for Flash that I had not seen before. Working on fixing Safari now.

Problem solved!! No pop-ups either.

I have windows 7 on my home computer and I only see the black bars. I have Chrome on my Samsung tablet and I can see the videos. The adblocker does not work on my tablet. The adblocker works on my home computer. I really don't think adblocker has anything to do with it. I just don't know what does.

kwg

IE-9 and Firefox here. Embeded YouTube videos seem to be displaying normal and fine here at the Campfire when using Firefox but not with IE. Oddly though at a few other websites I checked embeded Youtube videos displayed normally using IE too.

I haven't seen anyone else mention it but for several weeks now I've been seeing short and long runs of what I assume to be raw computer code show up intermittently over the Campfire forum pages. So far when it happens it has always been somewhere in the basic layout of the Campfire website. Never have seen it occur directly in a members post or reply.

Here's a copy and paste example from right before making this post.

24hourcampfire/CMGDB_OOP', 'div-gpt-ad-1462905611685-0').addService(googletag.pubads()); googletag.enableServices(); });

I had Adblock working on my kindle, you have to change some settings on your tablet to allow Adblock to function, I'm sorry but I can't remember how to do it. I'm sure a google on the subject will give you the answer.

Can you see this Scott?

I have both Chrome and Firefox on my Samsung tablet and adblock on both. No ads no problems.

Yep. No problem. I don't know why it did not show up that way when I posted it.

Edited to add: Pretty interesting video of how one guy survived a bad situation.
