Youtube videos only play for two seconds before displaying an error message since updating to FF28.
Since updating to Firefox 28, videos on Youtube will display a spinning wheel for some time, only play one or two seconds of the video, and then go to a Youtube ‘an error has occurred’ screen. At this point, Flash will crash, hanging Firefox for a minute or so. This occurs whether I am using the HTML5 player or the default player. The same videos worked fine previously in Firefox 27, and still work fine over the same wifi connection on Chrome for Android. A similar issue had occurred under Firefox 27, but only if the video was embedded in another site. Vimeo and Facebook Video still work fine: the problem seems to be specific to Youtube. Everything else on the Youtube site itself works; it's only videos that are malfunctioning.
I am running the latest Firefox and Flash updates on Windows 7 64-bit, with Tree Style Tab, Download Statusbar, Adblock Plus, Foxyscrobbler, NetUsageItem, and Pocket. The issue still occurs with all add-ons disabled in safemode, and with just Adblock disabled (my first thought was that perhaps Google had changed ad delivery in a way that caused ABP to break videos, but this doesn't appear to be so).
Does anyone have any ideas as to what's gone wrong? :)

Sorry, I forgot to mention, I tried turning hardware acceleration off as was suggested elsewhere on the support forum, but this didn't help either.
