Flash Videos Play Too Fast in Firefox

Changing kernels is a risky pastime. Do you need to re-install your graphics driver when you make that kind of change?

just reinstalled some Xorg X11 packets and ATI drivers with some other video drivers, nope, doesn’t help. I’m beginning to think of solving it as a typical windows user - “format C > install C”.

Just in case, you could try running in terminal as root (su -): SuSEconfig

Only flash videos have the wrong timing?

The problem is that flash is proprietary software, nobody can have a look
at it. If I can make a wild guess, I would think that one of the several
clocks in your machine is not working right. Perhaps there is a
configuration for flash that makes it use a different clock source. You
would have to google it.

You can also try installing 11.2 instead, and see if there is a difference.
Or try 11.4, the factory version. I’m not sure if you can try with a live,
it would not have flash.

thank you for advice, I finally fixed it, well I just rolled back to previous version of flash-player , now everything is fine, and I’m happy again. It seems to me that a new flash-player version is not always can be good, so keep it in mind, if you have such troubles in future. cheers

Well done, letian, and glad your mood and video streaming is restored. I always stick with the Flash and updates supplied by openSUSE. :wink:

Hi everyone

Sorry if I’m a little bit late for the answer, but this following solution worked for me :

I changed the audio output card (“Cypress HDMI Audio” to “Internal Audio”) and the flash player videos/sound started to play normally again.

I just post that in case other people have the same issue and don’t find anything.

Sorry for my bad english.
