I can confirm. Happening to me too. Had no problems with it yesterday.

I guess it's just another step from Youtube for blocking third party programs:

I can confirm this works now (for the most part - one video didn't work?). Make sure you move old unused/backup luac files out of the playlist directory, don't just leave them in there.
