I have the following code on a webpage to display a video file stored in an external location 

<object width="480" height="350">
<param name="movie" value="http://flvnetwork.com/assets/YTPlayer.swf" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="autostart=false&amp;frontcolor=lightblue&amp;backcolor=black&amp;file=http://flvnetwork.com/vod/iseehosting/media/lifejackets.flv&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fflvnetwork.com%2Fvod%2Fiseehosting%2Fmedia%2F4d1a61b3-892c-4201-af31-6f4e108c4511.jpg" />

The video files display OK in IE8 and IE9 as well as Chrome on PC's and Safari and Chrome on Macs. I cannot see why this would not display on Firefox in either Mac or PC format.

Kind regards Ian Johnson

For Firefox you need to specify the file name in a data attribute in the object tag. 

<object width="480" height="350" data="http://flvnetwork.com/assets/YTPlayer.swf">
<param name="movie" value="http://flvnetwork.com/assets/YTPlayer.swf" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="flashvars" value="autostart=false&amp;frontcolor=lightblue&amp;backcolor=black&amp;file=http://flvnetwork.com/vod/iseehosting/media/lifejackets.flv&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fflvnetwork.com%2Fvod%2Fiseehosting%2Fmedia%2F4d1a61b3-892c-4201-af31-6f4e108c4511.jpg" />
