YouTube vids cutting off too early sometimes.

Since a while [I'm thinking since v12, not sure] YouTube video's sometimes just stop playing at random and I have to reload them so they'll play the full length of the video.

I asked around [on IRC], and I'm not the only one having this problem.

Solved, it will, I'm sure, but is there a reason why this happens? It's rather irritating.

It seems to happen across OS'ses. [heard Windows users reporting the same exact thing] I myself use Linux 2.6.32.x [generic kernel for -in my case- Ubuntu 10.04LTS].

Thanks.

Same here on Ubuntu 12.04. At first I thought it was just the embedded videos (that I was watching mostly on Facebook), but recently I've also seen it happen on YouTube itself: the video just stops playing at about 35%, no matter how long or short it is. (And by the looks of the trackbar there isn't any more of it pre-loaded either past the ~35% mark.)

I've seen someone report they had the same problem with Chrome ...
