Cant play my Google Play movies, works fine in Chrome.
when I try to play my movies on Google Play website I only get a preview movie not the full movie. When I access the same page on Chrome and click on a movie the full playable version appears.

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

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

Found cached web content tab (not under adavnced-network) it is on same page as cookies. cleared it. didnt work. Trying safe mode now.
Ok fixed it. It worked fine in Safe Mode. Further investigation showed that my 'Ghostery' plug in was blocking the videos. Made Google Play an exemption and now works perfectly. Many thanks.
Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
