Hi again,

I can confirm that downgrading h5py from 2.6.0 to 2.5.0 fixed the issue for
me.

>>> ds = yt.load("DensTurbMag_hdf5_plt_cnt_0015")
> yt : [INFO     ] 2016-10-19 18:56:40,998 Parameters: current_time
>      = 751000000000.0
> yt : [INFO     ] 2016-10-19 18:56:40,999 Parameters: domain_dimensions
>     = [8 8 8]
> yt : [INFO     ] 2016-10-19 18:56:40,999 Parameters: domain_left_edge
>      = [ -2.00000000e+18  -2.00000000e+18  -2.00000000e+18]
> yt : [INFO     ] 2016-10-19 18:56:40,999 Parameters: domain_right_edge
>     = [  2.00000000e+18   2.00000000e+18   2.00000000e+18]
> yt : [INFO     ] 2016-10-19 18:56:40,999 Parameters:
> cosmological_simulation   = 0.0


Best regards,
Dominik
