Videoplayback aborted due to corruption or features the browser did not support?

Hello!

I'm trying to watch embedded videos on an anime site and no matter how many times I refresh the page, I get the error "The video playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the video used features your browser did not support."

I've tried all the solutions for this problem that I can find from other posts about it such as resetting Firefox, refreshing the page, disabling hardware acceleration, installing a variety of plugins, updating things on my computer and using Firefox's troubleshooting page. Nothing seems to fix it for me, sadly. I have the latest version of Firefox, by the way.

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

Oh right, I almost forgot to mention that it's not the video itself that's busted if that's what you might be thinking -- the video plays on other browsers such as Chrome, but I'd much prefer to watch it on Firefox.
