YouTube cannot see Google Chrome

I'm not complaining, but this is a bug - by the looks of it!
is the user-agent value wrong?

But I think I can blame YouTube, they must know what they are doing ... 

Today evening I clicked on YouTube to watch my daughter's favs. The site suggested me 'get Google Chrome', I am already using it. But suspected that a new version has come - good! new features - bug fixes - lemme get it. Downloaded, installed. WTF??? YouTube keep telling me to get Google Chrome.
o wait wait ... this is an advertisement - but still - I'm ... I'm a loyal Google customer - I have Google Account, I use Google Chrome, I watch YouTube vids, why telling me to use Chrome again and again ... lolzzz.

Hello YouTube, its a simple program logic based on browser user-agent, right? but its upto you :)

caught this from my ailing server :)
