This might be a silly question - Did you install flash plugin? In case you did not know, fedora does not come with flash plugin pre-installed.

To check if you have the the Flash plug-in installed, go to terminal and enter in the command:
locate libflashplayer.so

Once you have the 'libflashplayer.so' file in the directory '/usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so', you should be able to play Adobe Flash video on web browsers such as Firefox or Seamonkey. Once you get Flash working, you should be able to play their videos FAST too, since your ATI Radeon HD 5770 is a fast fast video card

Also, if you do not have flash player installed yet, here are the instructions

Code:

rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

yum install flash-plugin nspluginwrapper alsa-plugins-pulseaudio libcurl

Cheers!

If you are getting the same error in firefox also, it could be this bug that was reported.

Firefox bug

I am unable to find a related bug specifically for chrome yet. You could try to file a bug report perhaps?
