  4. Refresh Vine and voilà

media.windows-media-foundation.enabled is for Vista and later. The OP is using Windows XP, so needs to look at media.directshow.enabled

If you want to disable the HTML5 media player and make the website possibly fallback to Flash then you need to set the pref to false.

  • media.directshow.enabled = false

Note that this will prevent Firefox from using the HTML5 media player to play MP3 files.

It doesn't work either.

I tried Google Chrome and it worked just fine. :/ Well, it's not important, really, I don't use it very much, but... And I've seen it's a common problem amongst Firefox users...

Thank you for your anwers, anyway :)
