iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 5, 2010 Been looking at this issue here and there, it is not specific to windows 7 or a particular video card, I have XP and a 4830, the common thread of the complaint seems to be 4xxx series ati cards, maybe others. -reply by staxontoplyon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 9, 2010 Worked for me aswell!Online Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeWorked for me as well!Could it be videodriver related?I installed Win 7 a few days ago and everything worked fine (no freezes) . Yesterday my system (for some reason) broke down and I had to reinsall Win 7. This time though video freezes when watching (flash) video in full screen mode.The only difference (not counting Skype and Filezilla) between these to installs is that I had to reinstall my videodriver the second time (windows said it didn't install properly at first). Could it be that my driver is somewhat broken? -reply by Flash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 15, 2010 Online Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeOnline Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeReplying to mrdeeMine has been doing the same thing recently. It will play ok in small screen but when I go to full screen I need to click to start the movie. It needs to be manually switched to each chapter in full screen mode to play. It will also tend to stop and play like a jerking motion and also buffer. Does anyone know how this can be corrected? -question by Thomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 17, 2010 Disabling of hardware acceleration didnOnline Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeI tried the disabling of hardware but nothing happened. This situation has only been going on for only about 2 weeks. There are a few movies that have played since before disabeling of hardware but this hasn't corrected anything. What else can I do? I have reinstalled flash player also.-question by Thomas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 26, 2010 Without Disabling Hardware Accelaration? Online Films Freeze In Full Screen Mode Yeah ok, but WHAT IF I don't want to disable the video acceleration!? After turning it off the video quality decreases dramatically and well..It sucks! I'm running windows 7 64Bit with an ATI 5770 and an i5 CPU. I've reinstalled flash player and the ati catalyst drivers but still nothing! ...And I remember this happening to me again since like..2007! *** are the programmers up there in Adobe doing all this time?! -reply by George Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 This worked for me!Online Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeHi there, I just wanted to say thanks for the tip about disabling the hardware acceleration, it work like a charm and now NONE of the streaming videos freeze ever! I was struggling with this problem for about a year (all because I'm too lazy to figure out why it was happening). Thanks again! -reply by HappyCustomer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 9, 2010 forgot to mention...Online Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeI realise that most of you may have tried this but as said before by others, make sure you have the latest drivers installed for your video/graphics card regardless of whether it's on-board (built into the motherboard) or an expansion card. Make sure you have any updates related to the mentioned video/graphics card, update flash player AND shockwave player - I'm not 100% shockwave is a problem here but it is part of the flash family group so it can only help to be overkill about updates, disable Hardware Acceleration by right-clicking on the video your trying to watch, go to settings and uncheck the tick box, if it still freezes restart your browser, if after a restart it still freezes then I'm afraid I cant help past that. Good luck! -reply by HappyCustomer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 19, 2010 Fixed!Online Films Freeze In Full Screen ModeDisabling the hardware accelleration worked for me too. Perhaps this problem is specific to Radeons? I am using a Radeon 4350. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted February 26, 2010 disabling hardware acceleration - not a solutionOnline Films Freeze In Full Screen Modedisabling hardware acceleration is not a solution because it downgrades the video quality a LOT! like without HD :/ I have same problem (2,79GHz 3core AMD, 3,25GB RAM, Radeon HD 4800, XP SP3 & Adobe 10,0,45,2 installed).-reply by x-man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
