Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition: D3D Error 16:10 Not Supported

I'll keep this one brief.  Had a problem with Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition on Steam where the game refuses to start.  This Steam thread helped me get this one sorted.  Basically, open your Windows Explorer and go to %appdata% location and look for MKKE.  You'll find the dxdiag.txt file.  Open it and change the Dedicated Memory to 1024 MB.  Save the file and set it to Read-Only.  This will trick the game into thinking it has enough Video RAM to run the game.  Then watch the game reconfigure the settings.

Youtube Android Woes

So, on that old Eken tablet, the Youtube app started acting up.  I am treated with the "An error occurred" when attempting to sign in with the app.  If I try to play any video, I get the "Unsupported video format" error which doesn't make sense at all.

So, I started looking into a possible fix for it when I found this helpful link.  Turns out, it is the answer!  I used the Youtube 4.1.23 apk off the web and it works like a charm.
