Help: videos won't play on MacBook Pro

[hwalt22]

I recently bought a late 2013 Macbook pro with 8gb of ram and 256gb of memory. It's worked great for the month ive had it but about a week ago some videos stopped playing. On Youtube the ad will load a little bit and then stop and not continue to load. Also even in the advertisements the sound won't play. Please help, thanks!

----------

Also should mention that this problem is only in google chrome

So use Safari. I don't get why so many Mac users insist on using Chrome when it's the worst browser for OS X (resource hog and battery hog).

Just use Safari.

Agreed.

I love Chrome, but they really don't seem to care about making chrome for OS X decent. Which is odd, because if you notice - most of their demos/dev events/even GOOGLE IO they were clearly using a macbook (not a chromebook).

Either way, Safari has gotten better in Yosemite, and your cpu/battery will thank you.
