Since I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox and the latest Flash plugin on my Windows 8 laptop I can't see video on espn.com or espnfc.com. It just displays white and I can only hear the audio. I have no issues with playing videos on other sites.

I turned off my Adblock to see if it was the problem. The ad played just fine but then I get white for the video and only hear audio. Therefore I don't think that's the problem. Any thoughts?

hi krblumen, please try the following: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named dom.ipc.plugins.asyncdrawing.enabled. double-click it and change its value to false.
