Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.

Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache 

or

Tools->Options->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]

Youtube may have made some changes recently. Clear the Youtube cookie and refresh page if above does not do it.

It may also be a issue with Youtube as people with other browsers are getting the same. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?hl=en&tid=3cda4dac122b8f13

Another tip in case what I posted above does not work for a video is to make the youtube url as https:// instead of http://
