Oh not good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCuzXoCKQsY it was ok until i click on song 06. hang. inthe past I never notice this flash hang. jerome clarck where are you? ;) https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/869349dc-1aa6-4843-b813-b721c2140511
Bug 789379 seems related. banakon@katamail.com, does disabling your Addons NoScript/Adblock+/WOT make a difference when reproducing?
Flags: needinfo?(banakon)
hi, it seems (its important "it seems", not 100% sure!) that protected mode ON (sandbox flashplayer) + acceleration ON make a difference. to be deeper verified. if I repeat the same task (the same link) after the hang, I dont notice hang for the second time. it maybe of some interset: I can watch youtube for hours, 1080p, fulls screen, no problems. this kind of issue arise only if I peform some additional tasks, for example refreshing the page (=hang), or selecting another tab without YT (=hang).

Can you reduce this to detailed specific steps that reproduce the issue (so other people can reproduce the issue)?
as said, I watch YT video without problems. Today is good. tomorrow? yesterday the happened by SIMPLY refreshing the page with the link above. I guess it were better a dxdiag.log. Surely the experts should to find/discover a solution, a *general* solution , i.e. to be able to write a crash report/hang report that can be used succesfully by the expert, in order to establiush what is happening, otherwise we report is simply unuseful and you can delete this report, otherwise we will be here in year 2030 with the same problems. stimmt? ;)
the simply fact that I referred to the sandbox maybe this can help. as you can see here https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789379 since 2012-09-06 mozilla and adobe still dont found a solution: 2012-2014. so the question: why mozilla introduced the crash report?
a good crash report should be enough toreproduced the issue. but you will tell me that this is wrong, then I will tell you why the crash report is unuseful and in the meantime we become old. tja wahnsinn sag ich nur!
This is not the place to discuss this. That an issue happens sometimes or one time isn't neccessarily helpful. Is this happening constantly on that page? Can you answer the question in comment 2?
Not constantly, a day yes, the nex day no, the next day yes. If you read my reply (comment #3) you will understand that I tried it!! becasue my reply was: it seems that is due to sandbox (i.e. not due to the addons). "hi, it seems (its important "it seems", not 100% sure!) that protected mode ON (sandbox flashplayer) + acceleration ON make a difference." I dont write: yes, disabling the addons all is ok now. *astonished*
my answer to comment 2 (even if it comes with a rhetoric figure called "aposiopesi") was clear, because the XtC4UaLL did not ask to me to post a better reply.
perhaps the first useful reply comes from adobe: Could you try to type about:config in firefox address bar and then change “dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs “ from 45 to “-1 and re-try to see if it is FP crash or a timeout issue which killed by Firefox?
(I dont understand why only here on bugzilla I become nervous...)
doing so, as adobe suggested, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1008597#c11 45 > -1 "timeout issue which killed by Firefox" doing so, from 14th may 2014 I dont have these hangs!! CONCLUSIONS von Herrn Fritzsche: ...................... ...................... ...................... thanks.
Closing as WORKSFORME. Thanks for the update.
