I can watch and hear my videos just fine, but I am having problems after the video starts playing.

1) If I pause the video to allow it to buffer, I can't press 'play' on the screen. 2) If I leave the video to play, I can't pause it nor see how much time is remaining.

My mouse should change to the pointed finger, but it won't!

I have cleared my cache, updated my flash, and nothing seems to help the issue. Is it just me?

Try to right-click the video and see if you can enable Show Controls in case the HTML5 media player is used.
