The download button works for me. My problem is the instant crash when trying to play the video on the start page which is not a good user experience.

The crash seems to be Windows-only. In Linux, video playback is stable as far as I can see.

The crash is video-specific.

This one plays fine on 64-bit Vista Ultimate: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/video/

This one crashes on the same: http://mozilla.seanmartell.com/OGV/

Both videos work fine with 64-bit Firefox in Linux.

Works for me. If there IS still a problem, I hope it's tracked down and solved.
