I've seen this regression in the Nightly starting from maybe a couple of days ago.  Some Flash movies on Youtube fail to load.  The Flash plugin itself is loaded, and when I right click on it, I get a context menu with a grayed out item saying movie not loaded, and another item showing the version of the Flash plugin (11.2.202.233).
I also noticed that Flash is loaded in-process in my build: http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1624433.  Please let me know if I can help debug this somehow.

Is Flash also loaded in a plugin container?
Does this go away if you delete your pluginreg.dat file and launch Firefox again?

There is no plugin-container process at all.

Where should I find this file?

Hmm, found this in my profile folder, and yes, removing it did indeed fix the problem.  Known bug?
Yeah, known bug on mozilla-central for a couple of days. The regression would mess up your pluginreg.dat file if you regenerated it.
