Regarding youtube videos on chromium, I had the same problem on the epiphany browser. The solution in that case was to install optional gstreamer packages. I don't know if all of these are required:
gstreamer-0.10.36p13 framework for streaming media gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.13p16 ffmpeg element for GStreamer gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.36p19 base elements for GStreamer gstreamer-plugins-good-0.10.31p26v0 good elements for GStreamer gstreamer1-1.18.0 framework for streaming media gstreamer1-plugins-base-1.18.0 base elements for GStreamer gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.18.0 good elements for GStreamer gstreamer1-plugins-libav-1.18.0 ffmpeg elements for GStreamer Maybe chromium has the same issues.
