Firefox and youtube - adobe flash slowness

more options

Recently youtube is so slow using the adobe flash. (i mean not the html5, as with html5 everything is fine). I have latest firefox 29.0.1 with latest adobe flash player. When i try to use the volume meter or pause-start the videos, it is laggy.

Ok, disabled the protected mode in adobe flash did the trick for me. Hope they fix that in their new version.
