flash player
Having Flash Player problem on Firefox 49.0.2 Win 10, Flash latest version (.185) On BBC website, clicking on video link produces black hole where video should be - no error message. BBC site works perfectly on Chrome and Edge. Have 'refreshed' Firefox. No change. Please help !

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
- see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

- disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

Tried most of this without success.
Have finally got the Flash movies to play by the expedient of clicking the 'back' and 'forward' arrows repeatedly until eventually it works !
I don't really think I should have to do this ????
Hi wilkofife, please provide us a flash video link so I could test it with firefox :) thanks
Any of the videos here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news
(e.g. the Clinton jokes one)
This is what I got;
Note:I use Flash Block. When I disabled it, the clip played.
The flash videos on BBC website work fine on my pc. I'm running firefox 64 bit. 1) try to disable Hardware acceleration into options > advanced > general 2) try to watch your flash video with firefox 64 bit and a new profile. Run : "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P to manage profiles.
