Closing, seems to only happen on ArchLinux...

(In reply to Cédric Bellegarde from comment #1) > Closing, seems to only happen on ArchLinux... I use Arch Linux and YouTube works fine for me with Epiphany 3.26.1 and WebKitGTK+ 2.18.1... Could it be that the YouTube people are doing A/B testing again and some users might be experiencing breakage with WebKitGTK+ due to that?

No idea, was not working on Arch but was working on Arch with flatpak. So was an issue with Arch libs...

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=231116 It's an ffmpeg issue. Adrian Perez, your system is not updated ;)
