Yes, this occurs when you close a browser window. It will either freeze (requiring a Force Quit to exit) or crash closing all open firefox windows.

It used to happen when you navigated away from a page or close the tab or window in which the video is embedded (in Intrepid), but this was very rare (maybe 1-2% of the time). However, in Jaunty it happens 50-100% of the time, but it only occurs when you close a WINDOW, not a tab or navigate away from the page. I've been using some workarounds to avoid the crashes:

Any relevant commands outputs I can attach so ya'll can troubleshoot this more? I'm not a programmer, but I do have a dedicated Jaunty machine that reliably reproduces this bug. So anything ya'll want me to do, just ask.
