URL: https://www.youtube.com

Browser / Version: Firefox 103.0
Operating System: Windows 10
Tested Another Browser: Yes Chrome

Problem type: Video or audio doesn't play
Description: The video or audio does not play
Steps to Reproduce:
when I go to play certain videos they are stuck on loading, sometimes reloading the page works, sometimes it doesn't. The video tends to never loads. I have tried exiting the tab and reopening it but that doesn't always work either. It has been getting more frequent as well. I tested it in a chrome web browser and the video loads fine on there. I haven't noticed it to happen on a specific channel, it just happens on random videos.

Thanks for the report, but I'm not able to reproduce the issue. For me the video plays without issues.
