Anyone having trouble logging onto the forum, I try, does not accept my password, I get a link to reset password and I get access to forum, inactive for more than 5 mins and I am logged out, try to log in and it does not accept my password, so I go through the whole process again. No its not my computer as it does the same on 2 different desktops, 1 laptop and an Ipad so I am pretty sure its admin end. I think this is the 3rd time this year it has done this!!!!!

Unlike the national forum - here I log in once and get logged in straight away next time , whereas on the National it's a case of log in and then have to loog in again next time.
Sounds like settings, Tim - perhaps on your computer or search engine.

Well it's the Trf forum not my computers, I am in the channel islands and tried to get onto the forum using the works computer, everything works fine apart from getting onto the dtrf forum and off we go again with the same old problem of not recognising my password etc, and then when Ifinally do get connected the dtrf forum spits its dummy out after 10 mins and says it doesn't recognise my password again. Pissed off to say the least

I'm finding none of the utube links are working on android devices.
Same here.
Do you mean YouTube 'links'? or an embedded YouTube video ? With Android I think it's sometimes a lack of driver of latest flash.
I really do wish people would stop talking in Swaheli or Urdu
Jambo!, yes sorry, but I'm certainly no expert on IT. I have a similar issue when using my Kindle to view the forum. I believe the cause is likely down to what operating system your device uses, Windows, Apple or Android etc and how old it is. Many older Android mobile devices require a system called Flash to operate the media (video) players. This was produced by Adobe, who over 2 years ago stopped supporting Flash and stopped producing their updated drivers to help Flash work, focusing instead on the more universally accepted HTML5. As media players continue to improve, existing devices require updates so that they can keep using them, the older Android systems with older Adobe Flash drivers installed, can not cope with the new video players and won't play the video clips.
I can view a video directly on the YouTube site which uses HTML5, but I cannot view the same clip when it's embedded in a forum post on a website still using Flash.
Please don't mistake me for someone who knows what he's talking about.
I don't think this solves your original posts issues though.

Yes its just the embedded as you say with your kindle . I'm surprised because its a nexus 5 that was only released a year ago.
