    Hey guys.

    I apologize if this a known/solved issue, as I have not been able to find any resources on fixing this.

    The issue is that when viewing videos in flash, the video will often freeze for 2-3 seconds. The audio however does not skip. It seems to be a issue with flash only, as viewing things in Netflix (which if iirc is Silverlight) doesn't pose the same problem.

    Most notably I see these issues on YouTube and NHL.com videos, which I both believe use flash.

    Anyone mind helping me? Or know of a solution? Thanks!

    I'm using Firefox 8 with Flash Player 10.1 r52

    I just noticed it must be some sort of issue with firefox... as I'm not seeing these issues in Internet Explorer 9. Any ideas?
