Lots of broken thumbs

Keep getting this when clicking the Recet tab after ariving at the home page. Not all videos are broken though.

Cant figure out a way to attach a screen shot though.

The videos themselves should work, it's just having trouble getting the screenshot from youtube. Not sure why that is, but that's why you see the placeholder image.

The reason is that the script grabbing the thumbnail is looking at maxresfdefault.jpg but this is unreliable , it should be looking for hqdefault.jpg or mqdefault.jpg

Example, here's one of the videos with broken thumb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfdLh0MHqKw

maxresdefault is broken -> http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/YfdLh0MHqKw/maxresdefault.jpg

whereas, mqdefault works -> http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/YfdLh0MHqKw/mqdefault.jpg

i'm no web developer but the problem is not your pc. the sites not grabbing a screenshot of the vid or something its just using video-x-generic.png as the thumb

Last I spoke with Danmanjones he believed it was a youtube update that fuckered it up. Not sure on that though.
