Hi everyone,
Never had any problem seeing YT-vids on Trisquel, but recently they keep loading but never start playing. Anybody else any problems with that. BTW it's Trisquel 6.0 with The Shockwave flash GNASH plugin.
If you wish an alternative solution, here is the relevant documentation.
Here it is without getting screwed up by markup: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/play-videos-without-using-flash
Any idea why they played before, but recently no more ???
Well, Google / Youtube changes things from time to time.
I mostly either use youtube-dl wrapped with some custom scripts to download things for later viewing or Greasemoneky plus Viewtube.

Same thing here when using gnash (i.e. when html5 version is not available). It started happening recently. It usually starts playing if you change the resolution. I usually just use youtube-dl. Annoying problem though and I don't know what causes it. I have the flash onoff add-on installed. If I want to stream, first I try with it off and if the video won't play I enable flash and if the video doesn't load, I change the resolution and it usually makes it start.
Try Youtube HTML5 disabling Gnash or with UnPlug.
I am also experiencing this issue. Clicking the quality button to change the quality to 240p seems to be a work around. It isn't ideal but it works.
Recently I had the same problem as you, and I've solved it by installing the addon "YouTube All HTML5"[0].
This addon automatically disables Gnash for YouTube and turn on the HTML5 player (even for videos that are not supported by YouTube).
And it's free software, is licensed under GPL/MPL.

Thank you very Much !! It works again.
Thx a lot Damián; extension linked by you works perfectly in combination with "media.gstreamer.enabled" set on >>> "true" inside an about:config. (=
I got so frustrated last week when mates wanted to pump out some YT track and none worked. =W
Hope in no more groundbreaking (shaking?!) API changes..
I thought it might be something I had messed up, but I have also been unable to watch YouTube videos with Trisquel lately, using the default Abrowser with Gnash plugin. I've been meaning to get an alternative set up like Viewtube, Linterna, or a downloader. I guess this is incentive to finallyedo it.
Hello,
I have the same problem with youtube, I installed HTML5 with synaptic and desinstalled gnash.
