Vimeo Downloader Firefox

[Delmiro Fain]

Ihave the latest firefox version as well as the latest Flash player but still the videos are choppy and jerky. Youtube videos are just fine...it is only vimeo videos and the problem is DEFINITELY with firefox as they play just fine in internet explorer. Please help.

Ok, started firefox in safemode without addons and the video plays fine...go figure. So I guess that means one of the addons is interferring...now how do I tell which one. I can't enable them in the safe mode and when I start things up normally and disable all addons the video still plays choppy and jerky :(So how do I figure out which addon is causing the problem?

No didn't try that yet...may have to do that in a bit...as turns out the addons wasn't entirely the problem as did the firefox restart...which strips them all and the video was still choppy and jerky...*sighs*Will let you all know what happens when I get a chance to try disabling the hardware acceleration *fingers crossed, hoping that solves the problem*

For the past 1 1/2 months, whenever I load up www.vimeo.com and that is before I click and play any of the videos on the site, Firefox immediately lags. It also naturally, lags when I hit play on any of the videos. If I were to just let it be for a few seconds the video will eventually play although it still lags terribly and as soon as I move my mouse cursor (which takes quite some time changing from the finger icon whenever you press on the play button on a vimeo video to the normal windows arrow icon cursor), Firefox lags and a "(not responding)" would appear at the top of my taskbar only for it to be ok after a few seconds of just letting go of my mouse which means I'm not moving my mouse cursor at all. Firefox resumes back normally once I close the vimeo website tab. Essentially, I've to close one of my tabs which loads up the Vimeo website or be on another tab for my Firefox to work normally.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, made sure all my plugins and graphic drivers were updated including flash etc and have tried the solutions found on the mozilla support site such as disabling hardware accelaration under the firefox options menu but no dice, it still gives me a problem. It works fine on youtube but not vimeo. Vimeo works fine both in Chrome and Internet Explorer as well.

And lastly, Firefox these days crashes wayyyyy too often. Like I would be just browsing through any website, be it vimeo or facebook and it'll just crash, I don't know if it's a flash issue but I've updated it as well as reinstalling it numerous times to no avail. Anyway, that's not my main problem, my main grouse is this vimeo on firefox issue so I sincerely hope you can help me out here. Thanks very much for your time !

Hey guys, I've tried resetting it and it's fine and I proceeded to install my extensions & addons and the problem occurred. So I tried reinstalling them one by one and checked which one caused the problem and turns out it's my "free download manager" addon...so i guess, for now...problem fixed.

please also enter about:crashes into the location bar, copy the latest few report ids from there & paste them here into a forum reply. this will give us a better understanding what may be behind those crashes. thanks...

I've entered " about:crashes ", It says "Firefox 18.0.2 Crash Report [@ EMPTY: no crashing thread identified; corrupt dump ] " for the last few crashes. Im not sure which detail I should post up here though..is it the Processor Notes?

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.

ok, @empty is bad since the cause of the crash couldn't be determined and the reports were submitted empty. could you copy/paste the last 5 ones nevertheless, the important thing is just the ID, that will look something like bp-XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXX130212
