Very often, a large majority of the videos i attempt to watch indefinitely buffer/turn into a black screen at around 10 seconds into the video. Its either that, or the video doesn’t load to begin with. I just want to know if theres a simple way I can fix this or not
Aware, currently no fix.
Now no videos are loading!!! As of today I cant even do the skip to the end and replaying the video trick anymore.
I’m from Romania and have the same problem. So this might not be UK based
Oh jolly, I log onto YT after posting and now none of my videos load at all.
Same issue here. Incognito fixes it for me but then you’re logged out and can’t really watch the stuff you wanna watch. Seems like a microG issue to me. Not sure tho. I’m still using the OG vanced MicroG, maybe a newer version will work.
I noticed this non playing video last night.
UK based,
VPN solution worked for me
Same issue here in the UK, thought i was going mad, spent hours uninstalling going back to previous versions, trying older microg, etc. Finally used my purevpn to connect via USA and boom!! All working as normal. I suspect this has something to do with the google accounts as when i go incognito or if i log out of microg it works fine.
I’ve been having this problem since September. I now use Kiwi browser with Chrome extensions - YT dark, YT Sponsor block,YT return of dislikes and uBlock. Job done. Works great but I do prefer the revanced app but until this issue of playback in the UK is resolved (if it even can be) then I’ll stick with Kiwi browser for a workaround.
Guys google banned us. I have a new account never used YouTube vanced or revanced and video play just fine. On the same phone same micro g same revanced app. With my old account no video playing. Even with ads shown. So probably google has done something

This worked for me

“Edit:
Funny thing, i created a new brand account on my main account, then
deleted it and now the main account plays all the videos like it was
supposed to, no loading or buffering…”
If not try
I turned off Google device registration in vanced microg. This signed me out of YouTube so it’s not even really a fix but at least revanced works again.
This problem appears at random, for the last few days I have had zero issues with playback but then sometimes it will buffer on every 2nd video for a few days. Uk based.
When it does go back to the buffer stage it is always with certain songs. For example If I play the official video for eminem - superman it will just buffer but if I pick another video playing this song and artist it will generally work fine
Yep, 90% of videos don’t load, some do - but eventually buffer into nothing.
Still no fix in sight ?
Yep, I’m from Australia and videos don’t load.
Omg it isn’t just me!
Changing my location to the United States in the youtube settings seems to have fixed the problem for me for now.
just made a post about this, i thought i was the only one
Same bug for me, I’m from Belgium and I think our accounts have been blacklisted. The workaround for me was to go incognito or switch account.
