silverlight sample not working in firefox - firefox

I wanted give another chance to silverlight, so I started reading the tutorials on the silverlight.net site.
Unfortunately, I have found a sample, that works in IE9, Chrome, Opera and Safari, but not in Firefox 14. Link to the sample: link (sample with blue rectangle)
Isn't the plugin fully cross browser?
In the Channel9, the Silverlight player have problems in Firefox too. I can start playing the screencast, but I can't stop it or scroll (the first link from the shore: link). To watch something there, I must use IE.
Are there any resources showing, why in Firefox there are such problems?
[edit]
Now I see,the sample with red/yellow rectangle doesn't work too on Firefox..

Ok I have found it. To properly use a silverlight in the firefox browser, in the about:config, position dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll must be set to true (I had default false). Now these samples works :)

While using Application Modeler Not able to see Identify button after Launch in Firefox

I am using Blue Prism for gmail login test, I want to try with different Browser,I tried with IE every thing is fine but while trying with Firefox, not able to find Identify button after Launch. What would be the reason ? Is there any thing like Blue Prism doesn't support Firefox?
From what I know and what I've been taught, Blue Prism works ONLY with IE.
Blue Prism is compatible with the Internet Explorer browser only, you are advised to use IE while spying the web element, It does not support other browsers.It has the default setting of Internet Explorer, You can see this when you define the root node(brwoser+ URL path) in appln modular it shows the path with internet explorer.
Hope this helps.

Scrollwheel not working in Chrome for OSX

I have an application built with JSF and PrimeFaces. I am using a layoutPane and within it are two panels. I have set up CSS to scroll the content sections of the panels however the scrollwheel will not work on OSX using Chrome version 51. I can however use the arrow keys to scroll the section. The scrolling works as expected when using Safari and Firefox but not Chrome.
I should note also that I am using a Mac Pro with Retina display. I also have a second monitor attached that is a HP w2207. To make things even more interesting, if I drag the Chrome window to the HP monitor the scrolling works as expected. Dragging the window back to the laptop Retina display and the scrolling no longer works.
I have tried various system settings and nothing has worked. I have also tried altering the HTML/CSS thinking maybe there is some kind of collision between the parent panel and the child panels but I have not been able to come up with a fix.
Has anyone experienced this issue before or could point me in the right direction?
Upgrade Chrome to version 52.
I'm working on a different stack, but the issue seems to be exactly the same: in some cases scroll doesn't work and it happens only when I'm using Chrome 51 and Retina. I wasn't able to find the cause, and the only solution that I know is upgrading Chrome.

YouTube iframe not appearing properly in OSX Firefox

I'm building an application which plays videos using the YouTube iframe API. You can see the application here.
I've run into a weird issue where the player works ok in Chrome/Safari but won't show the video correctly in Firefox (I'm using FF22 on OSX 10.7.5). You can click the play button and hear the sound but the video never appears.
Anyone got any ideas what might be wrong?
Some Observations
You can see the YouTube branding (which is part of the player) so it's there, it's just not showing any picture.
According to #ceasar in the answers, the player works on Win 7 FF22. I have another report which states that it also works fine on Ubuntu FF.
If I open up the FF developer console and click various nodes in the DOM tree of that window, the video will appear. Try clicking div.show-details to see this effect (It's under body > div.wide > div.show-details )
There is a transparent overlay over the video but I'm setting ?wmode=opaque on my iframe (like this question suggests) so that should be ok.
This question suggests that setting certain styling rules such as border-radius on the iframe can mess with it. I'm not doing anything like that.
In FF the youtube logo isn't showing but working okay (win7 FF 22). Also in the other browsers I cannot click on the youtube logo. This is against the youtube TOS and you could be banned for this so be warned

Missing icons in Glimpse

I have just installed Glimpse, and in Google Chrome I am missing a lot of the UI icons (eg, the '+' signs to expand the blocks of details).
Any known fixes? I use Chrome for development as I find it runs faster than FireFox and IE, so it is a bore to guess where the icons are.
Also, no close button for the debugger, and the eye doesn't show when 'minimized'.
#awrigley What version of chrome are you using (currently we have been testing against Chrome 11, Firefox 4 and IE9)?
Also can you navigate to www.yoursite.com/Glimpse/glimpseSprite.png? If you can get to that endpoint can you "Inspect Element" on where you expect the buttons to be and check what chrome thinks the image URL(...) in the style is set to.

Silverlight 4 problems with FireFox 3.6?

I just started making a Silverlight 4 application and added a button to it.
The button doesn't appear in FireFox though. Works fine in Chrome and IE.
Can't find anything specific on google but there seem to be some problems with FireFox 3.6.
Anyone know a work-around or solution?
If you dont see anything you have to do the height issue (setting the silverlight object to have a height (that isn't just 100%) should help
