I have no problem with C browser when i click full screen on Youtube.

However, I have quite a hiccup from Firefox when I wanted to watch a video on full screen. It took 3 to 5 sec for it to load the full screen.

I thought it could be my system failure, but the other browser seem to work well and it loaded faster.

Please advise what can i do.

YouTube HTML5 videos or Flash videos?

IMO, Chrome might be better with their Pepper Flash Plugin than Firefox is with the Flash NPAPI Plugin from Adobe. That's one reason that Chrome spent the time and money to create an alternative Plugin architecture and moved beyond the antiquated NPAPI Plugins system.

As far as HTML5, I have no opinion other than to say that some graphics drivers handle HTML5 more efficiently than other do - lower "overhead". And I am sure it is similar with Chrome, but can't say for sure; Chrome lasted less than a week on any of my PC's - I thought IE7 was better than Chrome by comparison.

As far as what you can do, make sure all your drivers are up-to-date - especially the graphics drivers, which I hope aren't Nvidia - GeForce drivers. IMO, the ATI / AMD / Radeon drivers seem to be better with Firefox.

Yes i am using nvidia graphic card. It seem that it was alright previously until recently.

I guess I should reinstall FireFox again to test it out again.
