If that helps, I am running Android 4.3 on Galaxy S4 and I have disabled the pre-pacakged YouTube app. The video playback works fine on vimeo.com/m/ for exemple. Also, if I request the desktop version, I can play the video with the flash plugin, so I believe this affects only html 5 videos (if youtube mobile is html5, I'm not sure...)

Also, I noticed that the video thumbnails (the large one on which you click to play it) do not render properly. There is a black border on the left and the image is out of place.
