You either teach people to treat you with dignity and respect, or
you don't. This means you are partly responsible for the mistreatment
that you get at the hands of someone else.

Do you have Flash Flash 22.0r0(192) (22.0.0.192) installed? Is it
enabled?

With about:config, is media.autoplay.enabled true?

Are all images allowed? Are all cookies allowed?

Is it true that Donald Trump refuses to reveal his
income tax returns because he uses so many questionable
loopholes that he pays no taxes? See
<http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/06/15/new-evidence-donald-trump-didn-t-pay-taxes.html>.
Even if those
loopholes are legal, Trump might be too embarrassed to
admit he pays no taxes.

All cookies allowed and latest flash installed media.autoplay enabled to
true. and lateast Silverlight installed as Netflix uses Silverlight I
believe.

I use "general.useragent.override.netflix.com;Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko" and "general.useragent.site_specific_overrides;true" without problems.
