I installed windowblinds 10 a couple days ago and I'm realizing now that any youtube videos that are embeded on a site other than youtube.com will only play half a second then stop and buffer forever. The same thing happens when trying to watch anything on instagram. I'm using chrome and the problem goes away when I go back to the default windows 10 skin.
That is odd as WindowBlinds should have no influence on that.
Usually Youtube being silly is due to lack of HD space on drive C.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Not here. Just tried a few videos with no problem using Chrome.
Neil, please take a look at https://forums.wincustomize.com/476849/page/1/#3630896
gevansmd had a problem with Lightstar's "Reddish". Don't know if it's a miskeying in SKS or if maxwellbloz was using Reddish or not. Maybe he'll try a different skin to help?

Yes I've noticed videos doesn't work on my chrome either. Using latest vers to date.
Sometimes flash doesn't work at all either. Just black and nothing happens.
Windows 10 x64 pro WB 10.0.4
To everyone concerned, does this problem occur with all Windowblinds skins or only certain ones? Does anyone with Windows 7 or 8/8.1 notice this issue occurring?
Yep, just tried a bunch and the videos will only work with the default theme. I also have windows 10 pro 64x
OK, just wanted to make sure. This would definitely be a Windowblinds issue then, so someone experiencing the issue should email support@stardock.com about it.

Not a problem here.
YouTube video embedded on a forum, Chrome Version 49.0.2623.112 plays all the way through.
Windows IP 14316
Windows Blinds beta / 'Old N Style' theme
Same happening here. Youtube video crashing on start and endless buffering on Chrome Version 49.0.2623.112 m on Windows 10 64bit with windowblinds loaded. Not a problem with Internet Explorer and everything is fine after unloading windowblinds. Tried stable version of windowblinds 10 and beta. Same problem on both.
Try with Chrome Hardware Acceleration disabled.
That worked, thanks.
I don't know how you came up with that, Fictitiousfellow, but it worked! Woohoo!
Its an issue with Chrome's previous version and with the update. With it enabled I get black pages on yahoo. Disabling it solved the problem and vids on youtube always played without any issues.
I have been unable to reproduce this here.
What graphics cards do people have?
Mine is an AMD R9-280.
i use Nvidia GTX 780 TI
I have gtx 960
Unfortunately the fix of turning off the hardware acceleration worked in making the youtube videos loadable in chrome, but the performance hit to video quality was too great on my R9280. Youtube video became choppy. I had to add chrome as a per app exclusion to windowblinds to fix the problem for now until the bug is found.
