After video loads and the opening screen is displayed and play is pressed it does not start playing, not even the progress bar moves. If I click on the progress bar the indicator starts to move but only a still is displayed in the video window. this behavior showed up about two weeks ago.

Solved: I had autoplay set to false in about:config. Putting it back to true fixed it, but now I'm stuck with autoplaying videos
