Hi John,
I'm having no problems with flash videos on FFx 2.0.0.9 and the flashplayer9
plugin. Can you try typing
about:plugins
in the FFx navigation bar and let us know what the shockwave flash entry
says? It should look something like this:
Shockwave Flash

    File name: libflashplayer.so
    Shockwave Flash 9.0 r64

MIME Type       Description     Suffixes        Enabled
application/x-shockwave-flash   Shockwave Flash         swf     Yes
application/futuresplash        FutureSplash Player     spl     Yes
Cheers,
Jonathan
