Public bug reported:

Reproducable with activated or deactivated adobe-flash, the attempt to watch a 
video on youtube, results in "an error occurred .. try it later". 
Empty the cache and possibly cookies, change the default to a user defined UA 
string, (example screenshot), result: videos start flawless.
e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEvpnKRLDO4

All findings, such as right click on the black&white background to
report an error, or beeing forwarded to their faq resulted in exactly
zero solution. Obviously it's expected to use G.'s one and only
software.
