Are YouTube Videos Still Working?

I just noticed that my YouTube video is no longer playing videos.

I have 3 or 4 players including one I wrote myself. They have
worked fine for months. I hadn't played a video in a while, so
I'm not sure when this problem started. I own the mainland
parcel I'm testing on...and all is set up correctly. In fact I can
see the script I wrote is working to some degree, because it
grabs the clip title from youtube.com and displays it with settext.

But at the moment none of the players will display video.

[Playing Quicktime streaming media is no problem.]

Anyone else notice this?

Thanks for the replies. Since it was working for you guys I looked into
the scripts a bit and found that there was a small change in the YouTube
URLs, so needed to make an adjustment to the string length (one character).

YouTube videos are now working again with my player.
