User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0 Build ID: 20110824172139 Steps to reproduce: I tried to see a video on you tube Actual results: Since yesterday I can not view videos in Firefox 7 ... instead of the video I have a white zone on the screen. Expected results: The video must be displayed
We had a recent regression (bug 682951) but I don't know if your build is affected. Can you please try http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode ?
I have rsstarted Firefox in the safe mode. In the safe mode Firefox can not display flash. Then I have restart Firefox and it has not worked ... he asked every time to install adobbe flash 10. I have installd flash 10. After a new restart it has still not worked but I have fund out that it is needed to reactive all plugins. After this it seems to work. The problem comes up yesterday. I have a new feature???? When I open a page from Thunderbird, he does not open a new TAB on teh end of the tabs but he opens a new Firefox session with a different layout ... is this from firefox???? Thank you brainstuff
I have fund the reason of the "new feature" when I open a web site from Thunderbird ... There was a forced installatiion of Chrome who has changed the default browser. I have killed chrome and now all pages open in Firefox. The not displayed video streams seems also to be solved with adobe flash Version 10. In teh Firefox Version 7 I have still the following issues: - the group function does not work like in the version 5 (not possible to group pages) ... I think still that you must made possible to have SUB-TABS. - some add ons does not work .. ROBOFORM by example. also Read-it-lather and an add-on from Nielsen. Thanks
I have now fund a supplementary raison for this bug. Since some time I use Firefox with the history window open on the left screen side. When I open some pages (often with videos) the page is recovered with a white "shield" when I move the cursor the white "shield" disapears some time for a second and I see the page behind of this white shield. When I close the history window ... the white shield disapears and I can see the page normally.
i will mark this bug wfm because the reported problem works now. Please use the support (http://support.mozilla.com) if you have additional problems
