Hmm, you are having way too many problems here for something that is really simple to get working.
If the video doesn't work and instead goes to the "player" page with the "Hello, you either have Javascript turned off...", then send me the exact link for that player page (should be in the PIE address bar).
If you get "Unknown file format", there are two causes for this.
(1) The flv plugins are missing. This happens if you installed the two required cabs in different locations or if you have multiple copies of TCPMP installed. Since by now you have probably done so many installs and uninstalls, I don't know, maybe your registry is messed up from previous installs.
(2) The second cause for this is if the streaming content does not have the appropriate content-type specified, therefore TCPMP does not know how to play it. I doubt this is the case, though it's plausible that there are a few video links or video cache servers where this might happen, but 99% of the videos on youtube you shouldn't have ANY problems with.
If you REALLY want to get this working and it ain't too much trouble to hard-reset, maybe you should do that. Then follow the instructions *EXACTLY*, once and only once.
If you don't want to do that, then read in the FAQ (at the end of the troubleshooting section), on how to send me a diagnostic trace and PM me the output.
You can also check on some of the blackjack forums, maybe someone else has run into the same issue and figured out a solution.
