Has anyone noticed fire fox crashing while playing video?

Has anyone noticed fire fox crashing while playing video? I use fire fox as chrome does not support flash player and the videos being streamed are using flash player from one of the Star TV site. However, I noticed that every few min video?s either stops and start after pause of few seconds or some time I have to manually stop and start or it just hangs, with eventual error message being Fire fox has stopped.

I have no issues viewing videos from You tube and few other apps, however there is at-least this one provides streaming using their website only.

I have found Firefox for mobile to be kind of buggy. Try another browser. I am partial to Maxthon, but others support Flash as well.

I see below in description, any concerns as Nexus 7 is 7" inch?

***World's leading mobile web browser optimized for phones and tablets bigger than 7.7 inch (7.7, 8.9, 10.1, etc)***

Yeah, I use FF for my flash videos. It crashes sometimes, but only if I mess with the app after starting playback. If I exit FF to look at something else like an e-mail and go back to FF, the vid will be frozen and FF will have to be shut down.

This is acceptable to me because: Adblock Plus add-on in FF is awesome! No other browser blocks adds like this.

OK, in my case it just starts misbehaving without any intervention at from me. Such as sudden pause, freezing etc...

Some web sites with flash just work better than others on FF and the N7. Some don't work at all (like NBC.com). Some only work on certain browsers. That's what 'unsupported' means.
Just be glad you can see any flash videos.

I have 3 browsers that can see flash videos. Firefox, Xscope, and stock Android browser.
If it won't work on one, then I try another one.

Try Xscope, but I've found it crashes more with flash then FF.
