Is that possibly gnash? Gnash IIRC still doesn't fully support the features utilised by youtube.
Have you installed the flash plugin from aptitude/synaptic/apt? If so, what do you receive from
dpkg -l '*flash*' '*gnash*' [snip]
Then, some unuseful stuff: == Loading stream: http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=cY_KrB8Mepg&t=vjVQa1PpcFNC0_Vmf7Tgh8pq2tVgZTgBGRuQEA1S28M=&el=detailpage&ps=&fmt=5&asv=2&noflv=1 Loading stream: http://v7.cache2.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=0.0.0.0&sparams=id%2Cexpire%2Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Calgorithm%2Cburst%2Cfactor&fexp=903202&algorithm=throttle-factor&itag=5&ipbits=0&burst=40&sver=3&expire=1264899600&key=yt1&signature=3C09C806BB0A3FCC9CF94A95A7429513CCE9898C.D440F68A564E69A814DE2B041DA03CE4972021A1&factor=1.25&id=718fcaac1f0c7a98&redirect_counter=1 Loading stream: http://video-stats.video.google.com/s?ns=yt&docid=cY_KrB8Mepg&hl=en_US&cr=US&el=detailpage&fexp=903202&vid=aqSUfBzQpzyLVV7WYJF3KaH1uTg5Arf7C&csipt=watch&fmt=5&md=1&st=0.067&w=640&plid=AAR-ZjxkLeKATowr&vw=320&fv=WIN%209%2C0%2C100%2C0&sd=B4A7DD227MM&et=0.067&rt=2.8&len=254.4&bc=231338&vh=240&h=360 ==
Actually, I think this is quite useful in this case; the standard non-free plugin from Adobe doesn't return any output for me.
Once I have clicked, I can hear sound, and sometimes see an image from the flash being played, but nothing more. The whole Iceweasel becomes unresponsive, and I am obliged to kill the process. If I do not kill it, it begins to stall completely, and freezes. Any idea?
Check both PCs (about:plugins) and see if the flash plugins differ as I suspect they do. On youtube you'll get the best support from the 'official' flash plugin.
OR if you have greasemonkey installed, you can use http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/63509 and view the videos using mplayer or VLC. I've had the best luck with the greasemonkey script and the following settings
# ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf vo=gl cachesize=512 cache-percent=5 profile=plugin # ~/.mplayer/config [plugin] autosync=0 mc=0 correct-pts=yes Hope this helps, Edward J. Shornock
