Solarmass without a preview there is no way to know what the song title is..

It's no accident. This way, they get their page click whether you want to watch the video or not.

    [deleted] Actually an extension had them rendered 'unavailable' for me pre-crash. removed extension had all video access.
    but now almost all of them tragically look like that at my beloved Song of the Day...and I concur...read something about some revamped Alphabet treachery lately. also affected yt-dlp for a while earlier this year til patched.

        [deleted] I think it's not a Flarum thing, but YouTube has just restricted its embeds more on auto-generated videos.

        it could be or could be not..
        also not all videos are affected

            Solarmass also not all videos are affected

            on my end about 60-75% blocked since we brought forum back. can't sxplain the other 45% tho

              BTW I aslo tested with disabled uBO..

                  Solarmass It may be YouTube applies some automatic restrictions. It looks like every auto-generated song isn't unavailable for embed, so I wonder if there's a pattern based on the publisher.

                      [deleted] before the crash I wasn't seeing (I'm in USA) any Euro-posted songs. So there were (are?) regional restrictions on top of the auto-generated restrictions and if youtube plays its cards right it will someday be a totally blacked out restricted thread of mp3s with winamp skin equalizer graphics. we live in great times🙂

                        TL;DR: The video might be not available due to the owner disabled their videos for embedding or YouTube themselfs disables certain videos from being embed - due to copyright issues or any other obscure/non-disclosed reasons...

                        I wonder if there is a way to bypass this on Flarum, or using another YouTube instance where embed videos work 🤔

                        UPD: tried alternative piped link, no preview at all

                          disable embedding? I wonder how easy that setting is to find in one's yt account? a yt warning would be nice somewhere so peeps wouldn't be wasting their time linking dead stuff (if this is correct). All these mystery restrictions messing up my favorite thread and personal jukebox...
                          ...now how hard is it to hit the "play in youtube" button and launch another tab so i can listen to it? not hard at all. but dammit Jim, it's the principle of thread 😲

                                So I googled a bit today and found this thread

                                https://discuss.flarum.org/d/17770-friendsofflarum-formatting/359

                                in the post 350 there was a solution to edit config.php:

                                'headers' =>
array (
'poweredByHeader' => true,
'referrerPolicy' => 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin',
),
);

                                Not sure how outdated this information is. Maybe @JoshStrobl can take a look 🙇

                                UPD: I also checked the EndeavourOS forum (not Flarum) as I remember they have a similar thread:

                                Looks like they don't have this problem, all videos are available...
