DSM 520 Youtube links broken active tv

Hi I know this isn't really a twonky issue but is anyone else experiencing a big no no when trying to access youtube recently? Links to personal accounts were down a few weeks ago then restored but now won't play anything on both my computers and the dsm using mediamall. Have youtube changed their streaming method recently anyone know?

Following recent changes in the way YouTube streams video, DSM-520 owners are reporting that they can no longer play YouTube videos.

Now there is a new YouTube TV-website for the DSM-520 which works with the latest YouTube video. A 16x9 test version is available at http://active-tv.blogspot.com/

The new YouTube TV-web channel for the DSM-520 is completely different from any previous ones. It is fast loading and there is support for video search, Playlists, Subscriptions, Categories and Favorites (all of unlimited size). There is also flexible access to Standard video feeds. As an added feature, it is now simple to view any public videos of your YouTube friends. The 'info' key can be used to toggle on-off auto-pay of next video.

New Youtube Active TV Plugin for DSM 520

Post by saturday sun » Thu Nov 20, 2008 12:16 pm

Hi - I'm sure everyone will agree the new plugin is much better than the old mediamall one in terms of appearance, speed, and user friendliness. It'd be great if we could get dlink to officially support this plugin and keep development for the dsm 520 alive! It looked like it was going down the (you)tube for a while there if you'll pardon the terrible pun-sorry.
Please could everyone using the new plugin send their feed back to Daniel Mann at Daniel@active-tv.org. The 520 deserves more great stuff like this!
