[Bug 258899] Re: Flash videos on sites such as The Daily Show stopped working

[bobodod]

I was having this problem as well for all mtvnservices.com videos
(Colbert Report, Daily Show & South Park).  This is on Ubuntu 8.10 64bit
Desktop Ed. (fully updated yesterday) with Firefox 3.0.3 and the Adobe
Flash Player plugin v.10.0.12.36.

I would get a light-gray field where videos should have been.  Flash
worked fine on other sites.  I first confirmed that it wasn't NoScript
or disabled third party cookies that were causing the issue by testing
on a blank profile.

What worked was to download the older v.10 plugin referenced in <a
href="http://ubuntu-
virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5818117&postcount=25">this
post</a> in the forums and copy it to /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree after
renaming the newer plugin.
