Mildly annoying Youtube issue

Embedded Youtube clips are shifted so that I'll only be able to see the left half of it. Here an example from the Vimeo/Youtube thread in SE++. I get the same exact result regardless of if I have my Greasemonkey and User Style scripts disabled or not.

Computer restart didn't help. I upgraded my Firefox to the latest version (v.22.0), but I'm still getting the same behavior. I should have mentioned this originally, but this isn't a new issue. This has been happening for quite a while, I just finally decided to ask for help. And it's just with the embedded youtube clips. If I take the link to youtube for any of them I can view the video just fine on youtube's site (which is what I've been doing).
My work's default browser is IE8 (v 8.0.6001.18702CO). I don't even see the embedded video with that browser, just the floating play button that doesn't do anything when I click it. I don't ever use this one, so it doesn't really matter to me, though.
I installed the newest Chrome (v 27.0.1453.116 m), and that works just fine. But functioning youtube embedding isn't enough to make me want to switch browsers.
I'm on XP.
After doing a complete uninstall and clean reinstall of Firefox, Youtube embedding was working perfectly fine. So I went ahead and reinstalled all my extensions (since I had already verified that disabling greasemonkey and the Stylish script I was using for the PA Forums didn't help). But the embedding problem came back! So I went through and check whether or not disabling each extension individually helped. Low and behold, when I disabled Stylish the problem vanished. I verified once again that disabling the Sylish script that was specifically for the PA Forums didn't help, so I checked the other scripts.
Apparently, the script I was using to adjust the width of The Trenches was what was causing the embedding problem. I don't even know why I had that script anymore, because looking at The Trenches site with it disabled, I can't find anything wrong with the layout. Here's the script in it's entirety:
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml); @-moz-document domain("http://trenchescomic.com/") #Frame { overflow:inherit !important; } body { min-width:1050px !important; }I have absolutely no idea how or why that would effect the youtube embedding on this forum, but since I can't figure out what it was supposed to be fixing I'm guessing I'll never miss it.
