If youtube is blocked in your country or you can't access it then here is a fix that you can use. It will automatically redirect all the youtube links to proxy website. I will use ytpak.com in this tutorial.
Instructions :
- Download the redirector plugin for firefox here.
I don't use chrome, But there is a plugin like this for chrome too. Download here,you can use the settings provided in this tutorial, But I'm not sure if they will work. - Now restart your firefox.
- Open the Options for this plugin
- In new version, you can access this plugin directly from firefox menu.
- For FireFox users, Download the settings here.
Edit : updated version of ytpak script. Download here - Unzip the file and click import in plugin's Options.
- After Importing your settings will look exactly like in the picture above(some url have been changed for ytpak website. You can download the file for firefox above and change them accordingly )
Chrome users and see the settings in the image and set them accordingly.
Now you are done! all your youtube videos will now open directly in ytpak
