FF 17.0.11 won't run youtube films

(1/4) > >>

Joop:
I have FF 17.0.11 running, but when I want to play a youtube film the cpu is going up to 99.99% and stays there. For some reason it can load through, I have to shut it down with tops or so. With FF 10.0.12r2 no problem, instant view. I have the same add-on's installed and they are active in both versions. Can't find any setting which might be set wrong.
Now what?
Regards,
Joop

ivan:
You actually get youtube flash films to play?  Do you have a special version of flash player because most of the youtube offerings require at least version 12 and some now require version 14.

Dave Yeo:
Hi Joop, which version of FF17.0.11? The developers preview or my last upload?
Anyways go to about:config and check how dom.ipc.plugins.enabled is set and if set to true, change to false. I forgot this fix in the first upload.
What may work better is to use webm to watch youtube videos, not all will work and you may have to enable webm.

Pete:
Hi Ivan

Seems all the youtube clips I watch play fine with the current eCS Flash GA -  11.5.502...

Maybe I've just been lucky so far  :-)

I got the developer preview from hobbes. I set dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to false and now Flash works great. Where can I download your latest FF17.0.11?
