For some reason I have been unable to access videos posted on this forum. Is there a procedure to access them that I'm not aware of?

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Hi Insyder,
Re: For some reason I have been unable to access videos posted on this forum.
I assume you are talking about the black screen when someone posts a YouTube video.
I get the same thing.
Re: Is there a procedure to access them that I'm not aware of?
I am definitely not a computer-guy but I did figure out one way to view them. I right click my mouse on the video, that gives me a box with the YouTube link; along with more info that means nothing to me. I then 'COPY' that link & post it into a newly opened 'whatever' it is called. Then I can view.
However, IMO the vast majority of the videos are not worth the effort.
Hope that this helps,
Jerry Baumchen

I don't know, but it might be your internet security settings.
