Videos freezing several times

more options

Hi. I use firefox(36.0.1) and i have problems with online videos(from facebook, from sites, from youtube etc) which use flashplayer. The videos freezes several times for 1-3 seconds and the sound keeps playing. But when i'm watching videos which use html player i don't have any problem. Why it happens that problem with flashplayer?(my OS is win 8.1) Thank you Nikiforos

Hasn't online video always worked that way?

I don't usually watch online video, due to sensory issues, but when I do watch it I make sure to reduce the "image quality" to increase the not-freezing quality.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
