I am using firefox 20.0.1 on my windows xp pro machine. I have the latest flash player and have also downgraded the flash player per the troubleshooting ideas that I have seen in my search to solve this issue. Videos that I watch on youtube with internet explore do not crash, but I don't like internet explorer and use firefox for all my web searching. This crash issue is extremely annoying and I cannot fix it.

You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:

  • disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
  • disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I don't have RealPlayer and I have disabled the hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin. Thanks, but youtube video's still crash when I watch them using firefox.
