The same issue occurs with the AMD catalyst drivers, so it's not related to
just NVIDIA. I'm using Catalyst 14.12.
Starting to play a HTML5 video will instantly crash the browser, no need to
seek.

you can also try
http://media02.nfl.info/NFL/Media/2014/Video15/Officiating_Media_Video_12-05-14.mp4
if that works better -- not sure why it would say file is corrupt, as
you saw with chrome it clearly isn't...
here are related packages i have installed when it crashes:
libvdpau1:amd64
Joe Barnett, it may be the reason I can't reproduce is I have different
extensions and plugins installed then you that cause the plugin to not
work. Unfortunately, I'm at a loss as to what precisely is causing my
not being able to view the video.

Joe Barnett, when I went to the advised link via Firefox after installing the
package gstreamer1.0-vaapi (no additional entries were seen in Firefox
Add-ons plugins) it noted:
Video can't be played because the file is corrupt.
However, if I open it in Chrome, the video does work.
Hence,
trying to seek in
http://media02.nfl.info/NFL/Media/2014/Video14/Officiating_Media_Video_11-26-14.mp4
causes the crash 100% for me with gstreamer-vaapi installed. scrolling
through animated gifs on deadspin.com articles is not quite 100%, but
happens often.

Hi Christopher,
Would love to open up an apport-created bug for this, but I don't get
anything in /var/crash when firefox crashes, or get any apport dialogs
(i do get them for other apps). I do get the mozilla crashreporter to
show up, and i've used that to submit a bugreport many times, but
Joe Barnett, fair enough. It would appear Firefox is a one-off exception
to this. Hence, could you please provide the stack trace ID URLs as per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs?action=showredirect=DebuggingFirefox#Submitting_Crashes_to_Mozilla
?
As well, could you please provide the
Cut from Bug Description.

** Description changed:

- installed, firefox
Joe Barnett, you don't need to file a new report, or do any further
apport-collect'ing at this point, unless someone specifically asks. What
is still needed though is an example URL that demonstrates this problem.
