Description
See, for instance, http://www.openscience.gr/en/video/northern-lights%3A-a-view-from-up-above (works with IE)
I suspect that it has to do with the missing tag in the resulting HTML code.
Maybe something related to TinyMCE? I'm not using embedfilter or anything similar.

Hi kkarpou,
i have the same issue with the 6.x version. Can you tell me what you've done so that works?
#3
just for information - the same video with the Video Filter Module works.
I hope you can give me a solution, because i need the emfield module.
Thx.

Actually, emfield works fine with other media types, such as direct embed or quicktime; it just does not print the tags required for Firefox to function.
What I did after receiving no information was to manually edit youtube.inc in the contrib\video_cck\providers folder and add the following (missing?) embed defiinition at line 200, where it prints the
<object>tag:<embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/v/$embed&rel=$related\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"$width\" height=\"$height\"></embed>#5
I am experiencing the same problem on 6.x-1.0
- no emfield video using Firefox 3.0.10 (Linux)
- the original YouTube video displays ok with Firefox 3.0.10 (Linux)
- the same emfield video shows up nicely using Opera 9.64 (Linux) or Firefox (Windows)

kkarpou, any chance you can show a wider section of the youtube.inc document that you are altering?
I am not sure where to put your snippet from post #4.
Thanks a ton!

Solution from http://drupal.org/node/415806#comment-1537212 does not work, as there is already new version of emfield .
I do not understand, why it does not work, in Opera, IE, Chrome it is just fine. In firefox, the
<object>is there, but seems that not in the way it is expected by Firefox.Do you have any idea? thx.
Update: sorry for the post, I found out, that problem is in plugin of firefox
