Usually when in a web site (like Fox News) & there's a video to watch I can't watch it due to the message "ERROR: DECODE ERROR". How can I eliminate this & watch the video? Thanks for your input.

Have you tried to reinstall Flash on your system, uninstall from the control panel, then install from get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and try the video again.
