Prior to upgrading to Safari 10.0 (and 10.0.1) on El Cap, I was able to play videos all over the web. I had flash blockers so some would not autoplay, but could be manually suggested. Now videos all over the web (YouTube, ESPN, Yahoo, etc.) will not load for me at all. I click to play them and just get black screen space. Occasionally, such as YouTube, I am told my browser does not support this type of video.
At first I thought it was a flash issue, but this is happening on machines on which I have Flash Player installed and up to date, and machines where I do not have it installed but which used to automatically seek other codecs (YouTube, for example). Is there a setting I am missing, or some way I should be activating the ability to play these videos? This is really infuriating.
Additional note: I have Chromium on all my machines for the express purpose of playing flash videos if/when Safari cannot. Nor Chromium is giving me the same black boxes, not playing a bunch of those videos and in some cases (ESPN for example) telling me my browser does not support the video. There has to be something I am missing here. Thanks in advance.
