Can you reproduce the issue on a clean Firefox profile?

Also what version of the Flash plugin do you have installed (from about:support)?

everything works fine on stable Mozilla, no videos when I use nightly.  It's been that way for a week or two now.

We're in the process of removing support for plugins (bug 1677160), so I think this bug is irrelevant now.
