All YouTube videos stop playing after the first 2 seconds, but they continue buffering. If I click anywhere inside the video, it plays again but only for 2 seconds. Another strange thing is that there's no sound.

Here it plays normal – e.g. youtube.com/watch?v=2xjJXT0C0X4 – . Odd. Do you still get this error? Did you empty cookies, cache etc.? |
Thanks. I cleared the cache, restarted Firefox and now everything works fine. |
I had the same problem yesterday... from two different computers. It works now (perhaps thanks to CCleaner :) |
I had the same problem for several times. Not only Youtube, but also other video sites. I solved it by simply restarting Firefox. |
Got same problem with FF3(0.1) . but i was thinking of FF problem ..any other experience with other browsers? |
Yes this happens to me all the time, I have to restart ff and then it works |
So is it a flash problem only on Firefox? or is IE affected to? |
I restarted Firefox but still it does not work. How ? |

I think it's a flash problem. I solved this problem by disabling then re-enabling flash.... I'll just try restarting next time :P

It seems that this a problem related to Flash 9.0r115 and you should upgrade to a more recent version.

I've Shockwave Flash v10.0.0 d525 and Youtube stops playing after 2 seconds, since a couple of hours now. |
btw: Flash 10rc breaks youtube HQ |
CCleaner solves the problem but I don't know for how long. I think clearing the cache is the solution but that should only work so long before you have to do it again. As for a permanent solution, I don't think there is one. You would think it's a top priority for the guys at Mozilla especially with IE8 coming soon but the issue has apparently been around for some time now. |
Hi,
Had the problem with one user and not the other on same machine.
User with the problem has a file
Documents and Settings{username}Application DataMozillapluginreg.dat
which I removed – no idea where it came from.
Fixed!!!!!!!! |
