I am facing this issue for the past 5 days on my Torch 9860.youtube is opening when i am try to play the video the play icon is visible but when i click on it the video is not playing and the play icon looks like disabled.And i have visited the BB service centre(Redington India-Chennai) and they said it is service provider problem(Airtel) please contact them.And same has been done and the service provider says it is OS problem.Finally i found one temproary solution downloaded opera browser for BB and it is working fine but it is bad compared to the preinstalled youtube player provided in the BB os. Google Provide a fix ASAP.

"Unlike iOS and Android users, most BlackBerry users do not have a native YouTube client on their device. The YouTube link on the home screen merely redirects the device to the mobile YouTube web page, where apparently the problem lies. "
