Hey all, trying to diagnose a problem im having with youtube.

Whenever I try to watch a video in 360p or lower or i dont have an option for a detail level the video looks like it has some major compression issues, everything seems blocky, the video jumps around, and elements in the video start ghosting.

Anyone else having problems like this in firefox or is it just me?

not having the problem when i test with IE, so not sure.

Post here some video that is causing you the problem.

like i said pretty much any video in 360p

eg

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

You have version 10,1,53,64 installed (Flash Player Version from http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/)

No problems for me (even at 240p).

hmmm, interesting, its all the same for me, except the NT version (probs because im still on xp)

Try this: Make sure your h.264 decoder has deblocking enabled.

If it doesn't work, try to remove all codecs, and then DL and install this
