I remember reading (from an Adobe developer blog) that the issue was
caused by using OpenGL for doing the final bit copy to the screen, or
similar. The engineer was trading off between overall rendering
performance of the player and the flicker issue. He decided to keep
the flickering in and go for better perf.
Couldn't find that blog. Here's some other info.

It doesn't happen in Firefox on my Mac, only Safari. Is it supposed to
be a bug when more than
one Flash app is running in the browser?

That, I believe, is a Flash player bug. It can be found in any Mac

(not just safari). I think an Adobe engineer blogged about it some
time ago.

I just noticed that in Safari on the Mac, if I hold the mouse button
down over some part of the debugger window , like the
drag or resize bar, or even the text area, or over a button, the
mouse
cursor pulses between the hand cursor and the arrow cursor. It is
like
a rapid
flicker, about ten times a second.
This does not happen in Firefox. And it does not happen in Safari
if I
fetch the page with lzt=swf. So it is something in the
wrapper. And it doesn't happen with lzt=html, so it is some
interaction with the dev-console app I imagine.
Do we have some kind of mouse-grabbing Safari-specific code in
lzembed? Is it multiplexing the cursor between the dev-console app
and
the main app?
