Firefox freezes during live video streaming

Asked By debrajbartels 70 points N/A Posted on - 07/07/2014

I'm having a problem with Firefox in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. If I watch video live streaming, it freezes. I tried it in Google Chrome and it played perfectly so the problem lies with Firefox. It worked before and I wonder what happened to it. Is this some kind of a bug?

Firefox freezes during live video streaming

I would suggest that you try to get the latest version of Adobe Flash Player updated or installed in your system.

Most of the time streaming issues erupt when the flash player stops working or runs out of date.

You can download flash player by:

1. Opening “Ubuntu software center” . Type “Adobe flash plugin” in the search box ( Top right ).

2. Then select INSTALL.

This should solve your problem.
