After upgrading to Firefox 36 I can't watch Youtube videos on other sites, while other type of flash players take longer than usual to load. When I downgrade to Firefox 35, I don't have any of this problems, so these problems are definitely caused by browser update. Disabling Flash's protected mode didn't solve the issue. And yes my Flash is up to date.

hi, maybe that's an issue caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox & plugin-container.exe from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

Did you confirm via the right-click context menu that a Flash player is used because YouTube can also use a HTML5 media player?

This extension allows to switch between the Flash player and the HTML5 media player on the YouTube website.

I checked and its nothing to do with firewall and yes, I am sure that the Flash player is being used. I downgraded to Firefox 35 and that's what I am using now, until Firefox fix this problem.
