YouTube videos usually don't load unless...

Hey guys,

This is my first time on the forum, so I would appreciate some help as well as some leniency if I sound stupid.

So anyways... sometimes, YouTube videos I try to play load and play just fine, but most of the time, the video won't start until I change the quality. For example, if my video is by default on 240p, it won't even begin playing until I change it 480p or 720p, and then it will play perfectly. I use Flash Player 10.3.

Can anyone explain why videos won't work unless I change quality?

Thanks a bunch

Try updating to Flash 11.5, and also try to Reset Firefox. Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings

have you updated your plugins recently? Should work out your issues. Here's the place to refresh http://mzl.la/cGCg12
