Windows 10 build 10162 Firefox 39 Flash18.0.0.209 Some videos play fine but others just say they are playing and show the progress bar moving but all I get is a green screen.

Can you please provide example urls for videos to further investigate why this might be happening. Thank you.

YouTube now mostly serves Firefox users an HTML5 player, but the right-click context menu allows you to distinguish the two. If you right-click the green player, can you confirm it is Flash?

If so, it sounds like a longstanding problem with a simple workaround: right-click the media and choose Settings, then the first mini-tab and uncheck the box to use hardware acceleration

Any improvement?
