firefox not allowed to use youtube

Post by Glen888 »

Sorry if you did not get the picture. Here is what I get when I try to run a video on Youtube. This is a new thing. Any ideas?

In short, check for and disable any youtube-related add-ons.

check Synaptics Package Manager for mint-meta-codecs.
Install that package if not already installed
