Cannot stream videos on Amazon w/Firefox 47.0 version. Help!
Hi,
I've streamed videos from Amazon successfully on my desktop computer (Windows XP in use) until the latest version 47.0 of FireFox was installed. Now my videos will not play. I did all the things Amazon suggested: uninstalled and re-installed Silverlight, disabled it, etc. but still no luck. I do not want to have to use Chrome to watch my Amazon videos. Chrome works, but I'd like to stick with FireFox.
Please advise on what I can do to get my video streaming back on Amazon.
Thank you.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
- see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

- disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

Is the Shockwave Flash plugin used or the HTML5 media player?
You can check via the right-click context menu of the player area what kind of media player is used. A Flash based player shows a context menu with the Flash version.
