Some YouTube videos will render the YouTube box/controls just fine, but nothing happens if you press Start, and the buffering progress bar stays blank (no red in it).  Turning off dom.ipc.plugins.enabled and restarting Firefox gets it to work just fine.

The same behaviour is displayed both for Flash 10.0 and Flash 10.1 beta 2.
Is it always the same specific videos, or is it random which ones work and which ones don't?
It's always the same: if a video works, that specific video will always work, and if another video doesn't work, that different specific video will never work.  The example URL is one that never works properly.

Also, changing between fullscreen and non-fullscreen can temporarily unstick the video.
However, YouTube+OOPP is currently wonkier than it was a few days ago, so "always works" really means "at least starts loading before something goes wrong".
Problem fixed as of build 20100212073535
Most likely fixed in bug 544882
