Comment(by rransom):

 Replying to [ticket:2832 pstumpf]:
 > Looking at the source code of any youtube page loaded via Torbutton, it
 seems like Youtube is having trouble detecting either the html5 opt-in or
 browser capabilities and presents the flash version instead. But as I
 said, no idea why. Javascript and cookies are enabled.

 Torbutton changes the browser's ‘User-Agent’ string to match Firefox 3.6.3
 running on Windows NT 6.1 (the version marketed as ‘Windows 7’).
