I bought a new PC which runs WIndows 8. When I am trying to play videos on youtube the video starts for few seconds with resolution 360p and then automatically mozilla or youtube change it to 720p or more (it disables the other qualities) and after few seconds it crashes (error try again later). It is quite strange. I have the latest version of mozilla and also the last adobe flash player. Furthermore I re-install Mozilla nad again the same problem. What is going wrong?

Hello,

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See this article for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).

To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:

  1. Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
  2. Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
  3. Click on Settings in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
  4. Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.

    The image "fpSettings1.PNG" does not exist.
  5. Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
  6. Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
  7. Restart Firefox.

This Flash Player Help - Display Settings page has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.

Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

You can also try to disable protected mode as it is known to cause problems with Firefox.
