    Problem watching streaming video

    For some reason now I can't watch any streaming videos at all. When I try to watch something there's no sound and it stops at two seconds everytime. This has happened before and I would usually have to restart the computer or close firefox but that isn't working anymore. Does anyone know how I can go about fixing this?

    If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

    How many posts are you viewing per page? I was having the same problem when I was viewing 40 posts per page, but after I changed it to 20 it stopped. It was mainly happening whenever I tried to view videos in the Best Youtube Videos thread. I think it may have to do with too many flash videos/tabs opened @ the same time... not sure though.

      Mine's doing the same thing. Was happening yesterday too. I'm gonna try M's suggestion.

      EDIT: Still doesn't work for me even at 10 post per page. Oh well, they work in IE, so I guess I'll use that.

          It's not just this site, if I go to youtube or other places with videos I can't watch them.

            you people are bad luck. as soon as i clicked on this thread i went to go watch a youtube video and it stopped at 2 seconds and i lost the audio. i saved my tabs and quit firefox and that solved the problem though.

                That happens to me on occasion too. I just close Firefox and re-open it to fix. I guess it's just a bug in Firefox. Maybe it's fixed in 3.0.

                  it started happening to me when i downloaded version3.0 of firefox. i go into the tools/options/advanced/network and clear the cache then it works fine until the cache runs out i guess (couple days depending on how large). then clear again and repeat.
