Please note that I use gecko-mediaplayer (probably not directly
relevant to flash). It might also be relevant that I'm accessing the
Internet through a transparent proxy.

Youtube (randomly selected video):

Opera loads the player, displays the spinning dots (at the center of
the flash player) and hangs there. Firefox has similar behaviour, but
after some seconds of spinning the dots it plays the video.

On discovery it is most eloquent:

It shows that the entire content is downloaded, but does not play the
video. Firefox does.

I also have problems with playing _any_ video with gecko-mediaplayer,
but that's probably not directly Opera related. Firefox fails too.
