Adobe Flash crashes at WatchESPN

This happens often when I try to start watching a game on WatchESPN.com (or same as espn3.com) - the player loads, the red circle spins, and then it just hangs and I have to kill plugin-container.exe . This doesn't happen EVERY time but it seems to happen most of the time. I tried deciphering the crash report but couldn't make much of it, nor could I find people with similar crash reports. My version of Flash is up to date (11.1.102.55) as is my version of Firefox (9.0.1). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

You can try disabling Flash hardware acceleration by right-clicking on the video player >Settings, click the icon on the bottom left and uncheck Enable hardware acceleration and see if it helps.
