Joint hogger Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Does anyone else have problems with using Chrome & watching youtube vids ? probably about a third of all youtube vids wont play any sound, even when I go direct to youtube the sound is still missing but if i copy the vid link onto mozilla it plays ok, weird.

SkyRider Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Bit off topic, but kinda related. I use Maxthon for browsing and it completely blocks all ads on YouTube. Quite handy. It also has a dual engine at it's core so if you get issues with a Web page you can try it with the other engine to see if it's any better.

i11 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Might be a crappy little virus, be worth running malwarebytes or something. Kinda related, a while back my wireless mouse started going to shit. Over a week or so the index button seemed to fail more every day, it got to the stage it was taking 5-6 clicks to connect. Was about to throw it in the bin and go buy a new one. Anyhow I ran the malwarebytes, it picked up a couple bits and pieces and ever since the mouse has worked like its new. I don't know what type of cunt it takes to sit there and write viral codes that inhibit folks mouse function, but there ya go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSZZ Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 doesnt block sound out completely but some videos are whisper quiet at full volume whilst others are proper deafening. No virus/malware/adware or whatever my machine either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joint hogger Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 ran malware then cccleaner & its still happening, either its connected or my version of chrome is affected, fuck it I might go back to using mozilla as that seems to have improved since I last used it & it was quite buggy.

Bird Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) If you are talking about Google Chrome the browser, I used to have big problems that started after a Flash update. To cut to the chase, the problem was with Flash. The solution was to uninstall it completely with the uninstaller from the Adobe website. I could have then re-installed it but I chose to leave flash off and use the built in player in Chrome (and/or HTML5). The broken Adobe flash player was interfering with built in one in Chrome and nothing was playing properly. Worth a try perhaps. Thanks to the member who helped me to sort out the problem.
