You didn't say what your distro + distro version is :)

Unfortunately, I don't think we can do much about this, because it doesn't look
like a bug in GStreamer itself (maybe on of the movie player plugins though,
but it might be fixed by now), and because you are using a rather old version.

I suspect you simply need to upgrade.

You could also try filing a bug against your distro, perhaps they can backport
some changes from the Movie Player plugin to make it work again with the old
version. (I don't know for sure that there is a fix, but if it's possible to
fix it, it will be in a newer version).

What's happening is that we get a 403 Forbidden error from the youtube server.
