Vimeo player doesn't work on Firefox - html

I have a problem with the playback of a Vimeo video on Firefox with this configuration:
LENOVO 40613WG
Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bits
Mozilla Firefox 24.0
Flash Player 11.9.900.117
No extensions
I'm testing the playback on this page http://player.vimeo.com/api/examples/simple The video doesn't play, exept maybe 1 time on 10.
I have tested on 12 PC they all work. It doesn't work only with this computer.
There is a demo of the problem : http://www.screenr.com/FkYH
Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?

Is your root page HTTPS? We have run into issues with Firefox 24 and Mixed Content. If your page is HTTPS and the vimeo embed is HTTP then Firefox 24 (by default now) will block the HTTP Content.
FF > About:Config > security.mixed_content.block_active_content > Set to False.
I know we having this issue with screencast but since FF changed it could happen with other video embeds.

Gneisler's response was the right solution for me. Issue was not the Flash installation, as it worked fine in Chrome. However FF (running v25) was exhibiting the issue. Changing the config value as indicated in the response worked. (Sorry, I did't have enough reputation to comment or promote the answer currently)
I just wanted to add that this could bite you on other sites that make use of Vimeo videos (example)

Video Freeze in Chrome after 1-2 minutes in webRTC, working fine in firefox

When i wrote the code 6-7 months back everything was working, with no issues what so ever. But recently when i tested it, In Chrome specifically video freezes after some time.
Calling from Android implementation.
Call is working fine in firefox, safari.
If both devices are on same broadband, the issue happens about 1-2 minutes later, if anyone on 4G or cellular it happens instantly. My best guess is that chrome skips one frame to encode, and the drops all coming frames.
Here is a screenshot of webRTC internals sending video graph, after it dropped, you can clearly see the drop in 'sending bytes' and 'constant line' in encoded frames.
I don't even have any idea about how to debug this, any help is very appreciated. Thanks
How does the peerconnections iceconnectionstate look like? Does it go to disconnected and (after some time) to failed?
See https://testrtc.com/webrtc-api-trace/ for an explanation for that part of webrtc-internals.
I faced the same issue and as far as I know, this is a bug in Google Chrome version 56 and above. You can try downloading Google Chrome version below 56 it will work on the downgraded version. There are numerous bug reports filed with this bug and the interesting part is it is reproducible on Android's Google Chrome Application with version 61 and above.
Check out the following bug reports.

Save video from webpage html link

I am trying to setup on my website where I can view a video in low resolution for space saving purposes, then if someone likes the video, I have added into the webpage a link for them to download the full hi-res video. The problem seems to be that no matter what I try I cannot get anything to actually download to my pc from the host server webpage video directory. I have tried many different options that I have found by googling the net. For instance

If you are using Opera this will "Stream" and play in your Opera Browser, It will not work on IE11, Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari. And Streaming is not what I wanted anyway, I want someone to be able to download the file to their harddrive to watch later.
Can anyone help me figure out how to be able to download to my pc from the webpage Download link? The primary browser I would like to use is IE, however I am trying to also go for multi-browser support.
* Edit *
After clicking on the link in IE11 it appeared to be thinking so I let it run and after about 5 minutes it started streaming. But I still cant download to my pc the file.

jplayer just stopped working in Chrome - OK in other browsers

I've been using jplayer jukebox for some time with no problems but it has suddenly stopped working in Chrome. Still works fine in IE and Firefox but the playlist no longer shows in Chrome. It was definitely working at the end of June 2014 when I last added a track. webpage is http://www.jonphilibert.com/gallery.htm
Any suggestions gratefully received

Try changing the "mp3" to "M4A".

What has happened is that this Chromium issue means that Chrome uses Flash for playback since Chrome 36, rather than HTML5.
Your problem is that the path to the SWF path is set up incorrectly - Chrome Console tells me "GET http://www.jonphilibert.com/Jplayer.swf 404 (Not Found)"
So once you configure the player to have the correct SWF file path, playback should start working again in Chrome.
Note this means that playback also won't be working in other browsers that don't support HTML5 audio.

Embedded YouTube not working in Chrome

I've seen this post on Google's product forums, but who knows when that will be answered, so hopefully someone here may know.
On my site, the video will not display in Chrome (latest). It works fine in IE[x], FF, and Safari. In Chrome, the console shows this "warning":
[blocked] The page at https://www.mightyspring.com/ ran insecure
content from
http://www.youtube.com/v/cFxF3lWsdPE?enablejsapi=1&playerapiid=homepageVideo&version=3.
Anyone have any idea what's wrong and/or how to fix it? Or is this just a bug that will fix itself in the next release?
Just in case anyone comes across this issue, the answer is because Chrome is properly blocking the site from loading a video not behind SSL. My live site is actually https:// (see the "s"?) and I had the protocol as http://

Cannot Replay Cached Video in IOS5 Safari with HTML5

I'm working on a site using cached video in HTML5. It works fine on a laptop using Safari. When I test on mobile Safari using IOS 5, I see the following:
Site works and plays video fine when 1st loaded.
I get prompted if I want to cache 10 MB of data on my iPhone. I say yes. (Cache size in Safari was 9.5 MB) Website data page in mobile Safari settings confirms 9.5 MB are cached.
When I try to return to the website in a new tab, the HTML and images load, but for the video I get a play button with a line through it.
This happens regardless of whether I turn Airplane Mode on or off.
I have the exact same issue. I have seen various things by searching that suggest one of two things. Either HTML5 cache.manifest doesn't allow video, or mp4/m4v videos get cached with a different name and then don't get found after caching. I'm hoping there is a way to do it, but I still haven't found anything.
