So, solved about half my problems with Flash by adding an old CMedia
audio card
Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10)
and not using the built-in SiS audio controller:
Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97
Sound Controller (rev a0)
Completely fixes my stuttering audio problem and now I can play videos
using the flash plugin, at least for a while.
Now, usually, an embedded youtube video will play just after I restart
the browser. The main problem is that, after a while, firefox will peg
my cpu even if no video is playing, and sometimes the videos will play
only (and poorly) while I'm wiggling the mouse on top of them.
I am using the proprietary driver for my nvidia 6200 card.
Any ideas of other things to try? I currently have "Desktop Effects"
(Compiz) turned on, but turning it off makes little difference. I'm
using Firefox 3.5, but 3.0 seems about the same in terms of Flash problems.
