Chris, We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Firefox since that time.
We would like to close this bug report as we note that the upstream bug report is a duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612246 which is shown as being fixed. If we do not hear from you the bug report will close itself in approximately 60 days time. Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better. Paul White [Ubuntu Bug Squad] ** Bug watch added: Mozilla Bugzilla #612246 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612246 ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/941376 Title: Only one user on a computer can play html5/webm video Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am bitten by this bug with current firefox (10.0.2+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1) on 32-bit ubuntu oneiric for x86, although the problem is also in earlier versions of firefox and almost certainly affects any current ubuntu distribution. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730656 To reproduce: 1. Start a ubuntu installation with only one user account on it 2. Go to, say, http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html and play all or part of the html5/webm video there. 3. Create a new user. 4. Log out and log in as the new user. 5. Try to play the video: it won't. The patch I posted at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730656 corrects this problem for me. It is caused by incorrect use of temporary cache directories by firefox and/or incorrect permissions on the cache. I have not tested, but this bug probably affects all other mozilla products in ubuntu.
