Flash audio sync
Somewhere along the line of updates, Flash has lost its ability to properly sync audio to video.
Is this a known issue? I have Firefox 7. Does it work with other browsers?

This is happening at youtube and on Flash shown on a cable network show. It's annoying to the point of distraction.

2. I had
FF 7.0 . Updated that. I'll see if there's any change. Flash is up to date. I had installed the last update trying to fix this issue.

Thank you. Will let you know :)

3. Another thing to check
Make sure you've enabled hardware acceleration in Firefox (should be enabled by default). This will make sure Firefox uses your graphics processor for video, rather than the main processor.

Through Tools > Options > Advanced

...& on my crappy Win 7 Gateway laptop it was wreaking havoc on my ability to watch online vids. Disabling it in both Firefox & Flash player helped a lot.

Also have a look thru these:

Hope this helps.:-)
