Problem playing some YouTube videos

Server Version#: 1.13.8.5395
Player Version#: 2.19.1.904-f679df4f

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve noticed a problem with playback of some YouTube videos. Haven’t been able to isolate anything about the ones that work vs. the ones that don’t. Generally, I’m playing them from the watchlist on a Roku player, but they also won’t play in the Plex Media Player, or in the browser when connected to the server. After a fairly long spinny wheel (15-30 seconds) I get:

Playback Error
An error occurred trying to play “Blah Blah”

Here’s one that doesn’t work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWHiyob3Q9k

Also observed in previous version 1.13.5.5332

It’s maybe one out of 5 to 8 that won’t play. Some videos work fine. The ones that won’t play are persistent - waiting a day, or deleting and re-adding to queue doesn’t change anything. Any thoughts appreciated.
