I am not sure if this is relevant or related, but I am running
49.0.2623.108-0ubuntu0.14.04.1.1113 on amd64.

A couple days ago I upgraded to 50.x, possibly it was
50.0.2661.102-0ubuntu0.14.04.1.1117.

After this upgrade, no videos would play on YouTube.  I think there was
audio playback, but the video display rectangle was just black, maybe
with a couple grey lines.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 on a motherboard with Intel integrated
graphics.

I then downgraded back 49.0.2623.108-0ubuntu0.14.04.1.1113.  Luckily I
was able to find the correct .deb files for the downgrade.
