iPlayer Glitchy

Hi there. I’ve a new install of OpenSUSE 12.1
However when I play iPlayer in my browser it’s very glitchy. Sound is fine but the picture is poor and it is like it is skipping 5 frames at a time. I’ve tried it with Firefox & Chrome. Chrome is slightly worse as the sound deteriorates also.
Playing vids on youtube is fine.

Just tried it in chomium and got a message that Shockwave flash had crrashed - this is the first time I have encountered any poblems in chromium.

In Konqueror I get a message ‘Sorry we don’t support your device’.

Yes, I had the same for Konquerer. Tried Seamonkey - again with the same glitchy problem.

I don’t have a TV and use iPlayer lots so need to get it working!

iplayer?
Do you mean BBC

The iPlayer is a service on the BBC website in the UK. It allows people to watch shows that have already aired or stream certain programs live.
BBC iPlayer - iPlayer Radio Home

Working well on all my machines
All 12.1 - all updated - 32 and 64 bit

Have gone through and updated all software. Now Flash crashes in all browsers when I try to use iPlayer. And youtube has become glitchy. :frowning:

You may need to try turning Hardware Accel off

Switching off Flash’s Hardware Acceleration fixed the Flash crash, on 12.1 with BBC iPlayer using SeaMonkey.
