How can I request that the HTML5 player be used ?
When using YouTube, the Adobe flash plugin crashes immediately and states that my browser does not recognize any of the video formats available . Yes, it's the latest version. The suggested fix is to use the HTML5 player. Where do I go in Firefox to designate the HTML5 player as the default ?

Am noticing in supplied information that there has been some video card crashing or just errors. could you please update your video drivers or re-install them https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration Also try without Hardware Acceleration.
I notice you have a Avast SafePrice pluggin and Avast Online Security installed in the Firefox Plug-ins could you please try disabling them and try the video that were not being played again after disable then re-start Firefox.
If it plays properly then this is a Avast Issue you will need to bring up with them in their support forum.

Thank you Pkshadow, I had just installed the latest video drivers from NVIDIA. I went to Firefox addons and disabled Flash Player for YouTube - everything is working fine now ;o) Happy to have music again, Frankster47
