It is my understanding that Youtube has or is in the final(?) stages of converting everything to HTML5. It would also seem that others have a better clue as to what is going on than I do.

If indeed FlashBlock is installed, there is a simpler way. Go to the TOOLS ADD ONS EXTENSIONS and click on OPTIONS under FlashBlock. You will find a function where you can whitelist YouTube so that FlashBlock does not block YouTube at all.
