Are you sure it's Flash?
To confirm which player YouTube is serving, you could check the context menu. Either right-click or Ctrl+click the playing video. If it's Flash, there will be a short menu with the bottom line referred to either Adobe or Flash. If you get a different menu, then it's not Flash.
If it is Flash:
You can check and change your site permission for YouTube using the Permissions panel of the Page Info dialog. You can call that up using any of these:
- right-click/Ctrl+click a blank area of the page and choose View Page Info > Permissions
- (menu bar) Tools menu > Page Info > Permissions
- click the padlock or globe icon to the left of the site address, then ">", then More Information > Permissions
The site-specific permission for Adobe Flash should be near the top of that list.
If it's not Flash:
Most likely it's the HTML5 player. You could try the Flash Control extension, which says it handles both Flash and HTML5, to see whether that works for you. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/flash-control/
Hi, no it wasnt flash but HTML5, i instaled the addon and it works, thankies
