Need help with Zero Punctuation

[Caffeine_Bombed]

Not sure if this has been placed in the right forum category, so sorry if it hasn't.
Ok so I'm having an issue with Zero Punctuation videos ONLY. They just don't play. They don't actually show up at all, it just shows the page with a blank square where the video should be. All other videos on The Escapist work perfectly fine and I can watch Yahtzee on other websites with no issue.
I've read the 'help' section but to be honest I'm not really up on software, programmes etc...
Can anyone just give me some simple instructions on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

do you have noscript or anything like it? addons may cause video issues.

I've had the same problem. Using a different browser works for me.

It's weird that it only happens for ZP. Different browser is a good call. Also, check your flash is up to date. It *shouldn't* be the problem if other things still work, but it takes about 3 minutes and is worth a try.

Yeah updating my flash was the firt thing I tried but no such luck. What browsers are people using?

I'm using Firefox and ZP runs fine for me.

Shift+F5. It's possibly just on ZP cause it's the most popular and The Escapist is a bit wonky at the best of times.

Yeah I'm starting to think it might be an issue with the site rather then my computer's preferences. It was working perfectly fine yesterday and I didn't change anything. But today it's gone again =/

I use chrome but since I watch ZP about 4-5pm Australian Time I think I either get in before the Americans or after.
