Getting a lot of "The media could not be played." black rectangles on Twitter/Firefox/Flash lately, not sure which component is at fault.

Oh snap. You aren't using a linux distro perchance, if I may be so bold as to ask.. ? (this end, Ubuntu)

I always have Ubuntu setups on hand, but I sadly have to still run Windows due to my videogaming. I'll check there, and on the Macbook too.

That's why I'm curious, I suspect the same thing. But FF is apparently getting hoggier by the update (had a number of lag issues lately)

yeah. think the same way.. seems to happen during what we used to experience during the fail whales? (so, then down to lag.. right?)

Possibly, but what kind/why, I wonder. FF making this worse, I've even had it refuse to render pages ("white" html) for mo's, for no reason

could be down to combination FF + twitter media? when it occurs use chrome or opera (diff' addons - if any) media runs tho. But, not always.

..same perplexing FF act here on Mint, so use a single-tab chrom(ium) just for those pages -- both browsers with uMatrix filtering addon.

Aha, you mean you're increasingly getting "This media.." rectangles on FF on Mint? That could indeed mean it's a Twitter lag issue.
