I can't load any videos in Firefox except on Youtube. Youtube videos work fine, but any other video will play audio but no video. Everything works fine in Google Chrome. If I start Firefox in safe mode, videos work fine, but manually disabling every plugin and extension does not fix the problem. I have tried downgrading to various versions of Flash and even downgrading Firefox, but the problem persists. I am running Firefox 14.01, the latest version of Flash (although I have tried various other versions), and Windows 7 64 bit.

Do you have RealPlayer installed? If so, see Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Try to "disable the hardware acceleration" in the Flash Player.
