JPEGs with Firefox

Hi, when I do a montage, sometimes I get 'broken' jpeg icons, or it just sits there trying to load the jpeg...

I've read some of the previous posts but didn't see a clear fix for the jpeg issue (I don't have a need for MPEG - prefer to use firefox without add-ins) - - is there a workaround for this without having to using mpeg?

thanks, everyone.

Do a search for about:config - there are a few options in firefox that relate to the number of streams that can be active at once that you need to change. Might want to make a separate profile for video monitoring though, as I noticed the changes make certain web sites load slowly while not affecting others. (Newegg was horrible taking over 10 minutes to load the main page while staples loaded the same as before in a matter of a few seconds.)

The broken JPEG fix to Firefox (by changing the browser.cache.check_doc_frequency and
browser.cache.disk.enable) worked a treat!

Thanks - case closed!

... after a few days my broken images are back again!

I've checked the settings (per the link above) but nothing's changed, so I'm out of ideas ... anyone

In the options under the tools tab you can check the ZM_RAND_STREAM option.
If that don't do it try this thread:
