hello v2lethal, please update your real player software like it's described in Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox and see if this resolves the issue.
another thing that caught my attention is the "Save now" extension that you have currently installed - it is adware/malware, please remove it from firefox > addons > extensions & also Update Firefox to the latest release.
well i read this here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/i106 and it says not to have real player. so im confused lol
ive just install real player and it installed to firefox ive restarted and still having same issue.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
- disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
- disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
- disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
