YouTube acting weird in Chrome

Frequently YouTube gets screwed up in my Chrome (both on Mac and Win7)... the thumbnails on the right are blank, cannot vote or comment (seems like javascript is turned off).

What helps is to clear the browsing history and cookies (for the last hour is enough). But the problem comes back after a short time...

anyone else with this problem?

thank you

This has happened to me before, but it was a connection issue rather than one related to Chrome. Try disconnecting from the network and reconnecting.

press ctrl+shift+I and click network, refresh your page to see if some elements on page are delayed because ajax requests are delayed. I presume your problem was due to the delays in network.

if you want to know where the problem is in the network, you can open cmd and enter

tracert

and see at what point packages are delayed on the world wide web

When I payed a video, it would play for a second or two and then pause again. This happened to me quiet a few times. Temporary solution that worked for me was pressing ctrl+refresh. I own a chromebook so things might be a bit different. Well, hope it really helps.
