hello!
Facebook videos are not playing in firefox, it plays youtube videos fine. Some fb videos start to load and after that just a black screen remains.
No such issues in other web browsers.
Thanks in advance.

No such problem here with Firefox either.
Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

106.0.4 "Fixed a crash experienced by some users during media playback (bug 1792115)", so if you're not yet on 0.4, see if that fixes it for you?
Fire 750, bring back 250.

All Add-ons will be disabled in safe mode?

Do you by chance have a N or KN edition of Windows 7 ?, if so then you may only have partial support for HTML5 due to not have media feature pack installed.
