Ok, I have reverted "master" branch to before the "shamshel" changes. In addition I have added a new branch "shamshel" with the shamshel changes, which can be found here

Everyone needs to understand this. This "actual" video loads while the ads are playing. Typically for me the actual video has loaded within 3 seconds of the ads starting. Of course slower computers will be different, but I would think it would be rare to need to even wait until the ads are finished. As far as shamshel's troubles, I have made the topic branch on GitHub so he can have access to those changes. But unless I receive more info or some epiphany as to what is causing shamshel problem, that new branch is essentially a dead end.
