This is driving me crazy lately. Almost any page I go to lately (as in some about half way through the 11.3 release cycle until now) that has Flash elements has this nasty habit of showing white blinking squares all over the Flash element.
For example this page: http://www.poodwaddle.com/clocks/worldclock/ uses Flash to animate the world clock. The white blocks are over the clock face, along the bottom of the Flash element, and along the right hand side.
Other pages that have Flash video elements are sometimes impossible to watch because of the flashing and blinking. On some youc an't operate the video controls because they are covered by a strobing white block.
I've disabled Hardware Accelleration in the Flash options - which did improve things a little on some pages. One thing I've noticed is that the Flash objects that do the white block thing tend to have the Options context menu greyed out... I don't know if that's a factor.
Anyway is anyone else having this issue? Is there a workaround or tweak to fix it? (No, FlashBlock is not an option)
i'm glad to hear i'm not the only one seeing this -- it makes me crazy too -- i find if i download the video then play it in kaffeine the flashing squares go away, but it used to play fine in firefox -- dunno if it was the upgrade to 11.4 or firefox 4 -- those two upgrades and the flashing squares all appeared about the same time i don't have a solution for you, but i will be watching this thread in case someone chimes in with one sc -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
