Flash is pain and should hopefully go the way of the dodo very soon, if html5 <video> with open formats takes off. BBC are being nudged to use <video> more (I think it's already available on iPlayer for Apple - and a BBC news site redesign is coming soon) and it can't happen soon enough.
Sorry that doesn't fix it immediately, but you really should get support from Adobe for their proprietary pain. The community can't fix it properly because it's closed off. It's all bad-old-DOS-style "try this version" guesswork instead of real debugging.
