User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2b6pre) Gecko/20091208 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Namoroka/3.6b6pre

Affects the new HTML5 video element. If the video is paused (for buffering or by clicking the pause button), you won't be able to continue the playing by clicking the play button.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any page embedding the new HTML5 video element (for example http://openvideo.dailymotion.com/video/xbf3b4_please-help-the-world-cop15-opening_shortfilms or http://www.jeuxlinux.fr/spip.php?breve1014)
2. Click the play button
3. Pause the video by clicking the pause button
4. Then click the Play button again : the video will not continue playing. 
Actual Results:  
If the video is paused (for buffering, or with the pause button), clicking play will not continue the playing.

Expected Results:  
If the video is paused (for buffering, or with the pause button), clicking play should continue the playing.  

Ironicaly, the only way I found to continue playing the video is to use another bug : right click the video and click Full Screen, and playing will continue (in full screen of course).

Is it Linux x86_64 specific ? I can't tell... 

Maybe it's not to be considered as a major bug, but the video element is presented as a major enhancement of firefox, so I consider this bug as a major one.

Both URLs work fine for me on Windows.
