okay. youtube videos keep crashing no matter what i do. i made sure adobe was up to date, i cleared my cache and cookies even reset firefox.
only some crash though, but those that crash keep crashing over and over again at the same point. when i play then they'll start playing fine but when it get to a certain point the video will stop, the audio continues for about ten seconds then it stop too. the the screen get kinda pixelated and green then the video crashes. sometimes it ask to stop or continue plugin. please help I've googled this numerous time and simply dont know what do do anymore. ive got rid of extension that shouldn't be there and disabled unnecessary add-ons aswell

Turning green makes me think of this issue:
- Lifehacker article: http://lifehacker.com/5796783/fix-a-green-screen-on-flash-videos-by-disabling-hardware-acceleration
But since it occurs in the middle of a video, I don't know whether that is relevant...
I don't know whether it will help, but Youtube uses the DASH method of sending videos in small bits. The YouTube Center extension can revert to the older method of sending the whole video as one giant file. Maybe that will work more smoothly? (Or maybe it will crash earlier???)
