Chenxia: do you have a URL or STR?

This is attempting to load any video from a Facebook feed that isn't a youtube link - e.g., one that opens a popup video player + comments.

I was able to play https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1700281383531399&set=vb.1436673709892169&type=2&theater -- closing as wfm.

Attachment: Log: Clicking on fb feed video

Clicking on embedded links in a facebook feed spit out the attached logs.

I also tried the link above, but just ended up with a "loading" animation, and a popup instructing me to upgrade my flash (I don't have Flash installed at all). Nothing in the logs.

According to logs it's trying to play youtube's video. Created bug 1129603.
