Embedded videos have stopped working in the last few days. While the video tries to load, I get a message across the black video pane, that connection is lost or this video is no longer available, depending on the site. All the videos work fine in Internet Explorer. I have tried uninstalling & reinstalling the flash player plugin, making sure I got the correct plugin from Adobe for mozilla. I have also tried disabling other plugins like quicktime, McAfee, and java console. Nothing seems to work. Any other suggestions?

Make sure that you allow the plugin-container.exe program in your firewall.

Manually setting the crash protection for the adobe flash line in the config to false allowed the videos to work. Thanks.
