Is anybody else getting their friendslist videos mixed up? This is the second time now that somebody has posted a youtube video, and for some reason, the previous video posted on the friendslist has been embedded rather than the proper one. If I bring up just the entry page, I get the right video.
Technical difficulties aside: hee! Very clever and very cute.
Yes! I actually complained to LJ about it, and got a response:
Thank you for your report, and I'm very sorry for the delay in responding to you.
The problem you describe often occurs due to the way that Firefox's cache handles iframes. As such, LiveJournal is unable to fix this problem. However, other users have reported that clearing their browser's cache (see [http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=160] for assistance) and restarting Firefox restored the correct display of embedded media. If the problem persists, you may also need to restart your computer.
As an addendum, in my experience, it mostly happens when there are animated ads. Refreshing the page a few times to get a better ad usually cleared it up for me.
