I have the most up to date version of firefox running. Can someone offer me some advice? I tried to lookup what version of videos ESPN runs off of but couldn't find an answer. Only thing that came up relevant with "video playback ESPN" was something about HTML5. I tried the extension someone reccomended but it didnt work and my youtube videos were all messed up.

HTML5 is a player built into many web browsers.


Make sure you are not blocking content.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
