Streaming videos and Firefox browser
UPDATE: If you encounter this error message when attempting to view a video please click ‘allow and remember’. The video will play normally from this point on. Thank you for your patience
When Blackboard links to a flash format video from Firefox you may encounter an error message and the video may not play.
Our ITS department is working on it.
It is a Firefox specific issue, so if you are having difficulty viewing a video, we recommend you open the video in a different browser such as Chrome or Internet Explorer.
