The problem is probably related to the "raced" downloading. Firefox tries to race the downloading of the video clip and the login cookie does not get included. If you reload the page the video clip is loaded correctly since the login cookie is then included. My suggestion is that no external media (images, videos, etc.) should be "raced" or there should be some kind of meta tag to disabled "raced" downloading.

Please provide a link to a site where we can reproduce it. You can also provide a log of a load with the failure, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/HTTP_logging
After some more investigation we have come to the conclusion that this bug is not related to the "raced" downloading. It seems to be related to videos downloaded over http and that the video is not requested again if the page is being reloaded. When we changed the video url to https everything works correctly.

Looks like the video is blocked by mixed content or something else. Does your console show something?
No, this is not the case since it's working correctly if you reload the page manually. And I just noticed that the same problem exists even if you transfer the video over https. And the console doesn't show anything. Something is very wrong with cookie handling when loading videos in the beta. How can something so basic be broken in the beta?
