I had this same problem too but managed to fix it. Uninstall Flash from your computer (i uninstalled Adobe Flash Player 11 ActiveX 64-bit and Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin 64-bit from ADD/REMOVE) once they were both uninstalled i reinstalled the player and it seems to have fixed it.
That was the first thing I did. I am using XP and up until I installed Firefox 8 I had no problems. Uninstalled Firefox and Flash and re-installed both and no change.
Have the latest final releases of Firefox and Flash and I have this problem too. Flash working fine in IE though... :P

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

That doesn't fix the problem for me. All other browsers work fine, it's just firefox that wont play video.
