So one thing I have taken notice to since upgrading to IOS 6.

When on websites such as neowin and someone posts a youtube link that normally shows up where you can play it from within the forum...It would play. NOW when I click it, it says flash is needed.

I can open the youtube app and do it that way. But if I dont know of the name of the video then I can't watch it at all.

Anyone else take notice to this?

Using Safari, on my iPhone 4. I can agree with the OP. This is just going through the mobile version of the forums.

I'll second this from my iPhone 4S. BTW, did anybody give a try to a new YouTube player called 'Jasmine'. I finding it pretty neat (Though installing it does nothing to solve this problem)

Same issue, however I've noticed that some videos will play, and others won't. This is the third forum I've heard people complain about it.

I had trouble streaming videos from youtube to my apple tv... for some reason it was audio only... and still not happy about the lack of youtube app for ipad.

I haven't tried it anywhere else. I was thinking it's because youtube isnt hard wired in to IOS anymore. Is that possible?

I tried playing embedded Youtube vids on another website and it just says they are "unavailable".
It does indeed look like Apple messed it up somehow.
