Your More system details list shows a "Shockwave Flash 10.1 r999.Gnash 0.8.8" plugin.
It is possible that that plugin is not compatible with those videos.
You can try to install the official Adobe Flash plugin to see if that works. See Flash and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash
This is how someone helped solve the problem-thanks eveyone for the help!

There you go, you have too many plugins. This command will clean you up:
sudo apt-get --purge remove browser-plugin-gnash adobe-flashplugin gnash gnash-common swfdec-mozilla libswfdec-0.8-0; sudo dpkg -P flashplugin-installer libswfdec-0.8-0; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
You want ONLY ONE plugin, or they clash and you get nothing.
