There is a bug in Firefox 40 regarding the Flash support. The patch is coming.

We should verify that this is fixed in the next 41 beta

Streaming webcames are loading fine with Firefox 41 beta 5. Can you please try a build from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/candidates/41.0b5-candidates/build1/ ? Thank you!

I couldn't reproduce with Firefox 40 release under Win 7 64-bit and Mac OSX 10.9.5.
