I’ve just downgraded to FF2, no other solution, unfortunately.

From the codex, about version 2.1., when the tabbed editor first appeared:
“Our new tabbed editor allows you to switch between WYSIWYG and code editing instantly while writing a post.”

How is not this exactly like the case with the red button?
I also wish to answer your question, even though it is rhetorical. It was working great for me, until I encountered the problem, which seems to be my problem only, anyway. So it’s working out great.
Also, don’t “please” me. When I was saying a the regional problem with 2.7.1., I was clearly referring Youtube and other third party likes, which may occasionally restrict a video from a country. “though i seriously doubt it”, it was possible that 2.7.1. to not display this kind of videos when embedded.
I didn’t came here to pick a fight, I came here to solve my problem. As I clearly can’t do that, I’ll go ask for help elsewhere.
Thanks all the same.

While in this case it may be entirely my problem, you can’t actually believe that such errors occurring from switching to html and back is NOT a wordpress problem. It IS a problem, and I hope it will be fixed in the next upgrades. The majority of wordpress users don’t end up on this forum until after they have a problem. So how are they supposed to know this vital information? Especially in cases when things work fine for a couple hundred posts and then the error occurs?
Anyways, what you are saying is this: “well we have this thing that works absolutely fine. BUT WAIT, don’t push the red button! even though is there and it is one of the features, don’t push it! and even though it worked fine before, don’t push it from now on!”
Wordpress is a magnificent thing, a tool that represents way more than a blogging software, but it has it’s faults. Otherwise we would be all working in wordpress 1.0, even now. I just hope that this switching problem gets addressed.
As for my problem, I still didn’t found a solution. I even reinstalled Firefox, and nothing. Oh well, I’ll live with it until it will bug me so much that I’ll se no other way than quitting.

Anybody here with Windows? Maybe there lays the problem.

I tried switching to IE7 and the problem was still there. I don’t know, maybe there’s a regional problem with 2.7.1, though i seriously doubt it.

Well, I can’t see it, and neither do my friends whom I checked with, so what can it be?
P.S.I cleared the cache, cookies and all that, I even tried Reinstalling Adobe Flash Player, none of it worked. I have another blog running on 2.6 and I can see it’s videos just fine.
Sorry for the double post.
