Hi,
i got a big problem. I cant play Youtube Videos. On other websites Flashplayer
is working, but on Youtube it doesnt.
When i want to start a Video, the player doesnt load and it stays white. When
i click right its says in flash player menu "film is not loaded". Javascript is
on and i got the newest version of Flashplayer. I also reinstalled mozilla and
flash player but it still doesnt work. (It doesnt work in all browers).

thx for your help

I had a somewhat similar experience as you. I have problems with the
videos on the CNN news site (http://www.cnn.com), but only when I click Full
Screen mode.
Unlike you, Youtube videos are OK for me, even in Full Screen mode.

I think the Flash Player Plugin v 9 doesn't work perfectly with Firefox
3.0. You can try upgrading to Flash Player Beta 10. But this is still a
Beta version. I didn't try it , yet.
I've heard that some Websites don't recognize Flash 10, as they don't check
the version correctly....
This is purely a glitch with the Website, and not with Firefox nor Flash.

As an experiment, I switched to IE Explorer 7.0 to check things out.
and everything worked perfectly. You may wish to check it out. Flash
still works better with IE 7.0
