YouTube not loading anymore

I have a normal installation of Pi-Hole on version 5.0 and I am having issues using YouTube for weeks now. Most of the time (80%), but not always, YouTube videos do not load at all. In the YouTube app, one clicks on a video and it happens nothing. On the website, it is loading, for hours, without anything happening. Even clicking F5 doesn't solve the problem.

I assume that this could be a problem with any blocklist and YouTube.
Did anybody of you have similar experience? Are there any URLs being blocked that could break YouTube?

Thanks in advance!

Are you using any regex to block or any method to block the *.googlevideo.com links?

That’s the only cause that your videos don’t load (especially on mobile devices).

Thank you very much for your answer!
Yes, indeed. It is weird, one of the lists was containing that.

Thank you very much!
It works now.

Have a wonderful weekend.
