I am getting an error: "Cannot play video due to network error" It only started within the last few hours. It only affects Youtube playback, as Daily Motion videos play normally. The regular Youtube web-based service works fine, and Youtube is not down according to a web search. Other videos from Vimeo app are playing normally, too.

I've tried closing and restarting the app, killall cutetube, rebooting several times, switching between cutetube player and other players--nothing works so far. Conky did show Cutetube taking up a bunch of system memory during one trial, and the killall command worked, but the playback issue remained. Any ideas? I will uninstall/reinstall as a next step, but I'm headed to bed now.

I did activate the new Tweak B from N9QuickTweaks that enables screen rotation for QML apps, but I'm not sure there's any relation to the issue.

Any ideas? Is anyone else getting this on Harmattan Cutetube?

EDIT: uninstall/reinstall didn't solve the issue with Youtube playback. I tried repeatedly clicking on a video (as in click, see what happens, click, see what happens, etc.) to investigate. When I did, one of several things would happen: (1) once every 10 trials, the video would play as expected, (2) 2-3 times out ten, the program would crash or freeze (screen non-responsive), (3) 6-7 out of 10 times "Cannot play video due to network error" or "cannot play due to format" or something like that.
