Latest Firefox gives error playing live streaming video from "http://abc7ny.com/live" also local station "abc11" station "Uh oh! There was a problem playing the content. Please try again". Numerous reloads don't solve. Same stations work fine under Internet Explorer 11.

I have started while waiting for the live feed to begin and also when it is underway. Same problem. Any time the error occurs I can switch to Internet Explorer and it works fine. Thanks for trying!!

Are you using any blocking add-ons/programs?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Latest version of Flash installed. Problem remains. Sorry, I've been away for six weeks - no internet...

Appreciation to all responses. It seems switching to Explorer is the best solution. I hardly ever use it, as I am dedicated to Firefox, yet, whatever works. Great support team!

Sorry I don't quite understand the "Q and A" style of Mozilla Support. Safe Mode does not solve. Flash Player updated just yesterday and blockers disabled, problem remains. Will use solution of running IE for these sites. Thanks to all!

In Firefox 54 and below:

  1. Click the menu button New Fx Menu and select Options (Windows) or Preferences (Mac, Linux).
  2. Select the Advanced panel and the General tab.
  3. Uncheck Use hardware acceleration when available.
  4. Close Firefox completely and then restart Firefox to see if the problem persists.

  1. Click the menu button New Fx Menu and select Options (Windows) or Preferences (Mac, Linux).
  2. Select the General panel.
  3. Under Performance, uncheck Use recommended performance settings. Additional settings will be displayed.
