It looks like your Flashplayer plugin is out of date.

1. First, check to see if all your plugins are updated. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

2. If that doesn't help, go through the KB article here dedicated for audio and video problems. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-common-audio-and-video-issues?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Video+or+audio+does+not+play

Hope this helps!
