Hi there, Whenever I am watching any Youtube vids, the screen always seems like the colours are split up into a "green overlay" and the remaining colours are washed out. At the bottom of the video sits a green bar and the picture looks "double..."This is very anoying, and the problem does not happen when I use Chrome or Explorer (wich I actually do not want to use) The problem sometimes dissapears when I am watching in full screen mode No idea what is causing this... If needed I can upload a screenshot, but I am not sure how to do so here...

Thanks for any advise that can lead to the solution...

Cheers, Andy

If you see a green square instead of the Flash player then the player failed to create an overlay and you only see the green placeholder.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

You can also try to "disable the hardware acceleration" in the Flash Player.
