Recent update of Firefox was to 31.4, at least on amd64
but when I was on 31.3 I noticed no change in my youtube
experience: approximately half of their videos can be played.

P.S. I have no flash player installed.

Try a new profile, I had a similar problem and that solved it.  You may
need flash also, as I could never get the html5 player to work with
firefox -- currently 35.0.1.
