Google Chrome video issues.

Well, here's the gist of things: Chrome won't play videos anymore. When I go to youtube and try to play a video, its just a blank screen where the video should be with a "missing plugin" message right in the center.

It also seems Escapist videos won't load, neither will videos from any other site. I thought this would be an issue with flash, but it seems Chrome is bundled with flash and automatically updates when a new version of Flash is released.

Not sure what else to try. The videos work just fine in both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Anyone got any ideas?

EDIT: Forget it. Everything seems to be working now.

EDIT 2: And it seems the issue is back again. So... yeah, if anyone knows anything about this, I'm all ears.

I'm no expert however try uninstalling adobe flash player then re-installing it. If that doesn't work, uninstall Chrome but not flash and after saving bookmarks then try again.

If that doesn't work then uninstall both, first Chrome then Adoble. Reinstall Chrome and then Adobe.

If those don't work try filing a query.

I figured it out. After much google-searches, it turns out the solution was to disable flash, end the process using Chrome's task manager, then re-enabling Flash.

Did that, and its working.
