I only see a black screen. I tried changing http://www.dailymotion.com/video/video_name with http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video_name in the address bar: in this way, videos are loaded properly but I can not display the rest of the page (suggestions, comments, playlists, and anything else).

Problem solved. The solution is disabling the acceleration hardware (right click on the video > left click on "settings" > untick "enable hardware acceleration") or upgrading the video drivers (if they're available).
