Firefox 3.6.4, Flash 10.1.53.64 (32 bit, on 64 bit Linux with nspluginwrapper), still flickering. Same with latest 64 bit Flash (10.0.x) and without nspluginwrapper.

This doesn’t fix the issue with Firefix 3.5.7 on Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit. I had this problem with 3.5.6, but it magically went away (read: they snuck in the fix under our noses).

[...] of, except a workarund that works well: to increase the update interval. See here for instance: Fix Flash Video Flickering or Stuttering in Firefox | Dotnetwizard.net | MyDNW.com Also what I think helps is to install the latest flash. Version 10 at least, maybe even the 10.1 [...]

@Roman: That's true to some extent but I think its fixed in the new Firefox 3.5.x versions coz I don't see the bug anymore.

See bug 490122 in Bugzilla (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=490122) – the latest theory is that it’s actually to do with garbage collection, as the session restore tweak only helps some people and not to the full extent.

This appears to be an issue with all flash applications and FF as well. Quite interestingly, I have also had an issue with being able to view web based PDF files. I have FF3.5.3, XP, and Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I have NONE of these issues when I switch to IE. Why can’t FF and Adobe play well with others….

@Meena Bassem: It doesn't fix video loading..it fixes jerky playback of video due to the session being saved every 10 seconds.
