Streaming video issue

[sofasurfer]

Maybe somebody can help me on this little niggle...

When I am viewing streaming video such as Youtube whenever I scroll down the screen the video pauses until I get it back in view. This never used to happen and would continue playing regardless.

I am using Win XP and am at a loss to see why it is doing this now and how I can change it back to how it was before.

Many thanks

Are you running the latest version of Flash, and latest video drivers? Reason being the newer versions of Flash have hardware acceleration on by default, which may be the cause of your problem. Right click the video, choose settings, and you should see the option to toggle it on or off on the first page. Close your browser, reopen it, and try again.

Couldn't find that option but what you said about running the latest version of Flash had me thinking that I wasn't. Downloaded the latest version and seems to have cured the problem.

Many thanks
