YouTube still not playing movies (free with ads). In 6.21

[tfitzgex]

I just got my update to 6.21 from 6.10. (21 job 1car). It was broken in 6.10. Was hoping it would get fixed. @Ford Motor Company Please up date the software!

I think this is a case where you should blame YouTube instead of Ford. YouTube might have blocked movies from playing on platforms without copy protection or that don't have a a major browser.

I believe the MME is a casualty of the war Google is currently fighting against ad blockers.

Google would much rather protect their revenue stream than allow a few hundred (probably being generous) people a day in the MME try and watch a movie with ads.

Well... maybe put a full fledged app in the car?... QNX is a terrible base for anything.

Google probably prefers you subscribe to YouTube Premium.

If their analytics show them losing significant amounts of money from MME owners unable to watch movies with commercials, it will get fixed.

I would not hold my breath.

I was able to get mine to work after I clicked on a few tabs while in YouTube, can't remember how I got past it.
