All youtube videos stopped playing suddenly today

ALL of them. At once.. Just, few minutes ago I watched one, but then with no explicit or implicit updates they report 'Error happened' in Safari 8 (Yosemite).

Everything is fine in Chrome under the same login.

Computer has been restarted with no success. All Web Sites Data has been cleaned up with no success
NO Safari extensions are installed.

Is this a result of REMOTE activity affected my Safari? Was it Apple?

MacBook Pro (17-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mavericks (10.9)

I'm having the same problem. If changing the agent works then it isn't a Safari problem -- Google must have changed something. The problem seems to be ads, though I can't tell if it's pre-rolls or the pop-ups.

Update flash player and disable the hardware acceleration in Flash and/or Safari. You can find more method here http://www.videoconverterfactory.com/tips/youtubeot-responding.html.
