It works fine in Chrome, but part of the display doesn't show up in Firefox.  I'm suing Aurora 7.0a2 (2011-08-08)

I upgraded to the latest version of Flash available from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and it still doesn't work.  Although I'll note that in Firefox it's running version 10.3.181.34 and in Chrome it's running version 10.3.181.36.

the chrome version of Flash is almost always different from the Firefox version of flash (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari; all use the same version, Google has their own version that they update automagically)

Worked just fine for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0a1) Gecko/20110808 Firefox/8.0a1 and flash 10.3.181.34. Have you tried safe mode?

Is this still an Issue with a recent Firefox/Flash Combination?

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