Can you try a consistent repro? Doesn't work for me in linux corp machine either for Stable - 55.0.2883.87.

Assigning to Adobe POC.

Hi, it looks like this is a Chrome injection.

Pass - win8.1 M55.0.2883.87 / FP21.0.0.235, 24.0.0.201
Fail - win8.1 M56.0.2924.59 / FP24.0.0.201

We also ran the bisect.
427669 (known good) 
427670 (first known bad)

Thanks for the update.The CL mentioned above doesn't seem to be the suspect, its just the recipe changes for the build.

We may need a consistent repro. Kiran,can you give a try again.
Tested it on mac 10.12.1(non-corp) with chrome stable #55.0.2883.95 and beta #56.0.2924.59 with flash version #24.0.0.194

Still not able to play the videos on yahoo movies.
Attaching the screencast for your reference.
Yahoo - stable & beta.mp4

Moving to RBS,since the issue is only with yahoo.com and no other flash sites.
Status: ExternalDependency (was: Assigned)
I see content loading issues w/ both Flash Player enabled and disabled.

It looks like Yahoo's video player has an error, likely related to their video ad content.  This doesn't appear to be a defect in Chrome.

Not a chrome bug as per #8. Removing RBS.
