I've checked around the adobe forums too, and while there are plenty of posts with similar problems, their support has only been giving the generic responses... and those dont work.

Since the the update to the Flash Player plugin a day or two ago, most of comedy central, gametrailers and other sites video players dont show up or say you need to get the flash player.

Anyone had any luck fixing this? I've tried updating to the latest release candidate 11.2, tried clearing out flash and firefox cache and i have hardware acceleration turned off... but no luck  :/

It definitely appears to be a flash related issue, more then the browser, as i've tried different versions of firefox and chrome and they all have the same problem with the newer versions of flash
