Firefox will not load any flash video, on any website.
Hello, just recently firefox decided to stop loading flash video. Eg. Youtube, metacafe, etc. I tired uninstalling flash and reinstalling it, uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it, ive also tried scanning for viruses, and nothing has worked. Sometimes it will load the advertisement for youtube videos but thats it, after that it just stays black and the controls for the player still work as normal, but there is no video or audio. I've tried to install a different browser to see if that would make a difference and it did, i can view flash videos on chrome but the moment i go back to firefox, videos dont work anymore.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I tried what you said, some videos load faster now, but it still does the same thing. Ive tried loading firefox in safe mode with the same results. Also it looks like its trying to download the whole video before it actually starts to play it. Ive got a screenshot uploaded, for further info.
Ok well, i went to youtube again, tried to load a video, and it stays black for a long time then it starts playing, so im pretty sure its downloading it completely before it starts playing it. Any ideas?
