I have been having this same issue with Jaunty 64-bit and a geforce 8600 gt. Flash gets really choppy in fullscreen and in some cases even without going to fullscreen. Switching to metacity makes no difference. The "OverrideGPUValidation=true" fix seems to have worked somewhat, but it can still get choppy especially when I move the mouse.
What I find interesting is my CPU load goes through the roof whenever I switch flash to fullscreen. What is going on that can make an athlon X2 6000+ and the previously mentioned video card get pushed to their limits over something they have no problem with in windows? On some sites like hulu I can right-click the flash player and set the quality to medium or low and that helps quite a bit, albeit at the cost of making the video look crappy. I previously had no problems with this in hardy 8.04. Aside from this jaunty has performed spectacularly and I have been extremely impressed with it, but it's really annoying when one of the most basic yet essential functions for the average user goes out of whack, and could send a new linux user running back to windows very quickly. -- Choppy Flash playback in full screen. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346289 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
