Started task Test the Shumway SWF player on One and Done.
I followed the first link to watch the video on amazon.com to see if the Shumway Player is used for showing the SWF.

Clicked on the amazon page on the button Watch the video. A new window opened and showed the teaser imager of the video but no video controls to start the video. Also the yellow triangle indicating that the Shumway Player is used are not shown.

In the window the indicator for the Shumway Player should shown and the video player controls as well the video should be displayed.

Thanks for testing Shumway, a.nolting! I think this bug is the same as bug 1150189. Shumway had a regression where Amazon videos were played twice, but now they don't seem to play at all.

I'm reopening this bug because the problem is not a Shumway regression but changed Amazon content. When I try to play the Amazon product video at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OC0USA6, Shumway loads but does not play the video.

This does not seem to be a Shumway regression. I think Amazon changed their website. Tobias says IMDb is now using HLS video, repacking into MP4 in Flash, so Amazon is probably doing something similar.

Postponing to shumway-later because we are currently focused on Flash ads, not videos.

I also was doing the "Test the Shumway SWF player" on One and Done. https://oneanddone.mozilla.org/en-US/tasks/24/

on Firefox nightly I could not install the Shumway add-on, so that was blocking the test, but on developer edition I was able to get it installed. 

Couple of issues. First, the amazon links are both for old/discontinued products and there is no longer any "watch the video" thing that pops up that I could find. Someone may want to update those. 

Second, There were videos available on the page as part of the product images, but I couldn't get anywhere with testing them. It simply says I need flash player installed and there is no option to play with Shumway.
