Bug Description
On my Ubuntu 17.10 system, Epiphany Browser 3.26.1 has trouble playing YouTube videos. I can play a video from the start point without trouble, but if I pause the video the screen will freeze and stay that way after restarting the video, if I leave the page and go back later it will show a black screen. In both cases the soundtrack continues without problem.

I'm closing the epiphany task since this is easy to reproduce in the GNOME help app (yelp) too.
I reported this bug upstream.
