If I turn off flash I get:
You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.
Download it from Adobe.
If I turn flash on, the video plays fine. So I'll repeat:
To test, please click here:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
That should check your version and respond with:
You have version 10,0,45,2 installed
It that still has issues, then I recommend that you try a different
Firefox profile to test and see if the problem is with your profile. You
can do this by renaming /home/<username>/.mozilla/firefox to something
like /home/<username>/.mozilla/x-firefox-x and then reopen firefox to
test. You can always move this back if you find the problem is with the
profile.
Alternately, you can start firefox with the profile manager and create a
new test profile:
$ firefox -P
