Firefox & Flash Problems: What's Going On?
Posted by Jason Dunn in "Digital Home Talk" @ 01:37 PM
Is anyone else out there having problems with Flash 9 and Firefox 2.0.0.12 on Windows Vista, specifically with YouTube video playback? According to Adobe's "About Flash" page I've got Flash 9 (version 9,0,115,0) installed under Firefox. The problem manifests itself when I start to watch a YouTube video: the playback will start then pause after about two seconds. Hitting play doesn't start the video. I can seek through the video once it's loaded, but I don't get any audio, or video - just still frames. Under IE7, Flash 9 and YouTube work without a problem. I have almost no Firefox add-ons installed: Google Browser Sync, IE View, and Session Manager, so I doubt any of them are causing problems. I figured an un-install and re-install would do the trick, but that hasn't helped. I'm not sure what to try next...any suggestions?
