When I minimise a YouTube video I get a lingering image of the video

When I minimise a YouTube video I get a screenshot of the player on my desktop or over other programs, it tends to happen if I’m in another tab and click the taskbar it pops up in the top left hand corner covering everything but what ever is underneath is still there it just covers it with an image. It doesn’t effect specific videos and it can go a while before it happens again but its all happened since I last updated firefox and adobe flash player (which was yesterday).

The only “fix” of sorts I have is scrolling to below the information box before minimising as that tends to stop it happening after it has happened.

Also on top of this for some reason the first 3-5 seconds of the video appears black, the video does play right afterwards though but those few seconds are still black, i tried in safe mode and its the same thing.

I also have it - I updated Firefox and Flash both today.

When a YouTube is running and you cover all of the image with another page, a copy of the flash output appears at the top left corner of the screen, on top of anything there, and persists as long as the video is covered.

The only way to get rid of it is stop the video and wipe another window over the flash ghost.

I'd guess somebody isn't telling flash to stop updating when covered, and it writes to 0,0 instead.

Might be in flash, or might be in Firefox.

You may have a problem with the Firefox Flash plugin update to version 10.2 r152.

You can try to uninstall Flash and install the previous Flash 10.1 r102 version to see if that works.
