Exact copy of bug 626245, except that it's for Fennec.

I've seen this on a Galaxy S with the Flash plugin installed on pages embedding youtube videos.

What do you see if you load https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=508570 on your phone?

Eshan, did you change any plugin related prefs in fennec?

Basically wondering if fennec users will see this 
or not.

I'm not able to get flash to load on my galaxy s.  I suspect that youtube is embedding HTML5 <video> sometimes when flash isn't available.  If it's <video>s that are bouncing, that's definitely something we want to fix.

No, I've just installed Flash from the market.  Everything else is the default.

No, it is the Flash plugin.  Have you installed Flash from the market?

yea... no plugin support in fennec. Is this an HTML5 video?

Yeah, that screenshot shows that fennec isn't able to load flash.  I think you're being served embedded <video>s, which is awesome! :)

Note that I'm talking about the video thumbnails, as seen from websites embedding youtube videos.  If they're <video>'s, they've done a very good job at hiding the visual differences!
