Nominating for blocking. You can't interact or dismiss the settings dialog by clicking on it. Tested on latest nightly with Flash 10.1.102.64

Already filed and currently blocking, although we're hard pressed for a fix at currently.

As a note, other instances of Flash video don't exhibit this problem, like youtube where you can interact or dismiss the settings UI.

There's a test case in bug 604303 that reproduces this reliably. The difference seems to be windowed vs windowless flash, with the problem only showing up in windowless.

This is NOT fixed Mozilla as of the latest nightly (12/2/10).  I am still having the problems mentioned in my bug 615891 and in this bug I still can't exit the settings UI (the button does not even say "Cancel").

Also, for this bug I have to select right-click menu items on the Flash video in the Yahoo site multiple times before the video responds to my changes (such as Quality or Zoom In / Zoom Out).

It was marked as a duplicate. See bug 604303.

Yeah - sorry.  I realized that after clicking through the other bugs mentioned in this report.  There isn't a way to retract a post though and I understand that the programmers don't want duplicate postings of the same bugs, but sometimes it is unavoidable if two people are reporting at the same time maybe in different time zones.
