293217 - Shockwave suddenly stops playing

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[saniya_s2000]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: 

I noticed this behaviour after I downloaded the latest update for the browser.
The link above has a shockwave in it. It plays smoothly. But if I click "stop" 
and then "play" again, it doesnt play.

Also, sometimes, when i close that tab and play another lecture, it stops 
playing. Only when i close the browser (all tabs) and restart it, it plays the 
shockwaves.

I dont know if this is a related issues, buy images on many sites are not 
shown. e.g. my.yahoo.com and hotmail.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to the above URL. The shockwave will start playing
2.click stop
3.click start. 

Actual Results:  
Shockwave does not restart.


I dont know if this is due to number of images loaded. One of the pages has 
lots of small images in it. But my computer has 512 MB ram and firefox and 
adobe are the only applications running. So RAM shouldnt be a problem. 
Something wrong with firefox. Because both the above problems are not occuring 
in IE.
