Lightbox Ultimate – Youtube video not playing in Internet Explorer

[MyInternetScout]

Hi support team,

I’m running v1.8.0 of Lightbox Ultimate; however I’m running into the issue of Youtube videos not displaying when the popup appears. This only happens when I’m using Internet Explorer. With all the other major browsers (Firefox, safari and chrome), the video pops up and runs as it should. I can duplicate this issue on a second computer.

It happens to all of my videos on this page…

A sample shortcode is…

Is there a resolution for this issue?

Hi, did you get it to work already? I just tested your videos on three versions of Internet Explorer (8, 9 & 10). They all seem to be playing fine.

I got it working. I had re-install flash.

Thanks, Pete.
