FF only plays first 3 seconds of video on YOUR site :-)

FF 3.0.10 with Flash 10 only plays the 1st 3 seconds then stops, on all videos in the list.

IE 7 seems to play it correctly.

I tried to troubleshoot my code for a long time and couldn't figure it out before referencing your examples and yours did the same thing :-)

I'm by no means a programmer so I'm looking for help.

Generally this issue is related to flash rendering of audio or video. I can reproduce this issue on ANY website with any flash player (vimeo, youtube, etc.).

I have 2 monitors (on DVI and HDMI) and Windows Vista. When switching from one to another windows changes default audio playback device (also directsound device). If I switch to a different monitor WHILE having Firefox open, flash will hang after 1-3 seconds on every video because it can not fill the audio buffers.

Note that switching back doesn't help and it's "hang" most of the time. Only closing/reopening whole FF helps. This is because firefox works on single process, while for example Google Chrome creates new process for each tab - in Chrome if flash playback hangs it's enough just to open new tab with the same URL.

This bug is present since early flash 8.0.
