Flash Player Plugin
« on: July 30, 2012, 09:27:47 AM »
I have the latest version of LXDE, and Firefox really isnt working right. I can watch a video for a while on hulu and then the player crashes. It says my plugins are up to date.

no, hardware acceleration inside the flash plugin

open firefox and then open a youtube video

while the video is playing, right click on the video/settings

in the first tab if the enable hardware acceleration is checked uncheck it, then close firefox and reopen it, see if the crashes in hulu keeps happening

There are a lot of topics about the flash-player-plugin.
