Firefox's Selective Hatred of Flash
Posted: Fri Mar 20, 2009 7:08 pm
Hey all,
So something I can't quite figure out: for some time, Firefox hasn't been able to play some flash files correctly. It can do Youtube, for example, but it dies on Myspace; it can't play samples from hmv.co.jp, it can't load most non-Youtube videos from Gawker, and so on.
Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash didn't fix this. Curiously, IE and Opera have no problem on this content.
Any ideas?
