Failure on some streams (no crash)

(Sorry if this gets posted twice.)

On some sites the flash video stream does not play, even though there
is no crash. The same stream works with a native flash plugin.
The only test case I have at the moment is www.cbs.com/video
(which is AFAIK not accessible outside the US).

What does not work:  fedora 9 with all the latest updates on x86_64, i.e.
nspluginwrapper-1.1.2-2.fc9.x86_64
nspluginwrapper-1.1.2-2.fc9.i386
firefox-3.0.2-1.fc9.x86_64
flash-plugin-9.0.124.0-release.i386
libflashsupport-000-0.5.svn20070904.x86_64
libflashsupport-000-0.5.svn20070904.i386

If I install flash-plugin-10 and remove libflashsupport, I get exactly
the same symptoms.

What does work:  ubuntu 8.04 with all the updates on i386.
This means firefox 3.02 (or 3.03), flash-plugin-9.0.124,
and the plugin is run natively.

What can I do to track this down?

Thanks,

Alex
