I have heard the 'white screen' problem mentioned several times in this thread but as of yet I don't think anyone has discovered exactly why that happens or has tried to solve the problem.
I have the same problem with certain video sources. I have been able to force this problem to occur by refreshing the page while the video is playing. This seems to only occur with the flash players. I have not seen this problem with the other media types. When I refresh a page with a flash video source that uses the flash player, the AnyMedia player window turns white any stays that way no matter how many time I refresh the page. I am using Internet Explorer 7 as my browser.
Here's the weird part. If I create a new browser tab, then immediately go back to the page with the white screen, a page refresh immediately restores the White screen to a normal Anymedia player window and I can play the video again, Of course refreshing the page again causes the white screen to appear and same as before, if I create a new browser tab, I can go back and refresh the page and the white screen goes away. Here's and example page:

The tag for the video looks like this: [media]http://www.sharkle.com/video/122595/[/media]
I am not a programmer and certainly don't know why this is happening. I just posted this in hopes that it may give someone, that is a programmer, a clue to why this happens.
This is a great mod but has a few flaws. If enough people start working together on this, maybe we can get all the bugs out.
UPDATE: When the video is set to auto start using these tag options,
[media="640,480,yes"]http://www.sharkle.com/video/122595/[/media]
the player screen will still be white but you will still hear the sound. In the particular example above, right clicking on the anymedia player screen, shows that it is using Adobe Flash Player 9.... at least on my computer it is.
