THIS plugin lacks the ability to tailor blocking per webpage easily. Too much blocking than is necessary.

If I click on a video, it says H264 on it, and the video becomes black. The sound plays ok but I can't view the video at all. I went through many different iterations of installs, and finally went back to the older 1.5.3 to view videos again.

First we have this one right here on MacUpdate which is called ClickTo Flash and seemingly is (at the time of writing this comment) at version 1.5.3 (with a beta version 1.6b9 available), developed by Simone Manganelli whose website can be found at
http://rentzsch.github.com/clicktoflash/
Then there is ClickToPlugin Safari extension which is at version 1.5.6 (updated at November 7, 2010 according to release notes), developed by Marc Hoyois whose website can be found at
http://hoyois.github.com/safariextensions/clicktoplugin/
And finally there is ClickToFlash Safari extension which is at version 1.8.7 (updated at November 7, 2010 according to release notes), also developed by Marc Hoyois whose website is at
http://hoyois.github.com/safariextensions/clicktoflash/
Could anyone get me on track, please? Developers, please explain...

The ClickToFlash Safari Extension is a new version of ClickToFlash designed to work with Safari 5.x, with its new Extensions feature; from reports, it seems to work fine, so should be preferred if you're using Safari 5. (It won't work with earlier versions of Safari, nor will it block Flash for other WebKit browsers.)
The ClickToPlugin Safari Extension is an extension of ClickToFlash's functionality to block other types of media, such as QuickTime, SilverLight, Java, Windows Media, from loading unless specifically requested. Again, as an extension it works only with Safari 5.

Additionally, if I am on another site and a person has a YouTube video embedded there, I can view it. Nonetheless, for some odd reason I cannot view YouTube video as I was normally accustomed to, while on the YouTube site's video pages. And this happens with or without me logging in to my YouTube account. Also, I can view flash on any other site without any problems. YouTube is the only site where I seem to have trouble, and it is only on the normal video page of their site, not the member pages, or the channels pages, etc.
Finally, I did not have this trouble to begin with, when I first installed ClickToFlash. YouTube worked flawlessly at the start. And I still enjoy flash on other sites. It's just a pain to do the additional clicking to navigate to the video submitter's (YouTube member) page in order to view a single video, if I am on the YouTube site, or it can be a pain to watch a limited selection of random videos on the channels page, however, any video search results I select take me to the normal video page where I repeatedly have trouble viewing the videos (these are the pages where one can read all the comments people post).
By the way, I have the ClickToFlash version 1.5.4 currently installed and I started having this trouble with YouTube when I had ClickToFlash v. 1.5.3 installed. The message I see in the YouTube video area is, "An error occurred, please try again later." And occasionally, when I click on a video from the search results list a text file is automatically downloaded called, 'video.mp4.txt, and I'm thinking security breach or something. This is spooky!
I am really scratching my head trying to troubleshoot this because I have the trouble with or without ClickToFlash installed, yet before I ever knew ClickToFlash existed and then installed it, I never had trouble watching videos on YouTube.
Please help. Thanks.

ok i uninstalled the NON beta version then tried the beta...but couldn't find that anywhere after installing it..so tried the NON beta again and it told me that a newer version already is on my HD...??
so i replaced it with the NON beta version and it's mot in drop down menu anywhere !!!
how to i find it looking though all the folders in finder ??..i am getting really annoyed at this now..and cannot understand why you have to have a account simply to tell the devs ...i have not come across that with many other apps...

I actually found with ClickToFlash installed the CPU was being used twice as much even when the flash was still being blocked. So I uninstalled it. Maybe it does that because it's a beta. I'm going to try some other tools.
