<![CDATA[Problem with FlashPlayer on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (i386) and Opera 12.16]]>Hi all Ubuntu users,

I have a huge problem watching any streaming transmissions. After a while flashlib takes all processing resources, audio stops to be correlated with video, the stattering with audi happens. With a flow of a time (in minutes) it gets worse so after about 20 minutes, sometimes even less, all that I can do is to power off my laptop because it happens to be unresponsive. I don't know whether the fault lies on the Opera or Ubuntu side. Does anyone has or have had this problem before and knows solution? Any help would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Paulo

Just too slow and too buggy. Watch out though, they're going to make you believe that's a problem with your hardware, software, Adobe, Bill Gates and freemasonry.

  • Hardware accelleration in Flash
    Disable Hardware acceleration in FlashPlayer

  • Hardware accelleration in graphics card's driver
    Disable Hardware acceleration in FlashPlayer for Opera

  • Hardware accelleration in Opera
    See URL opera:config#UserPrefs|EnableHardwareAcceleration

  • Old graphics card's driver
    Update your driver
