Flash player stuttering

Hello all

I have the latest version of flash installed, and am using Firefox and Windows XP with a LAN connection to internet. When I test my flash plugin at the adobe "Flash player test" page it says everything is fine, but when I try to play episodes at http://www.hasbro.com/action/default.cfm?page=video&id=691 , the playback is stuttered - proceeding for a second or two, pausing for a split second, then carrying on.

I have set the quality to low and allowed an unlimited cache for flash player. All other flash content I view works fine, but I haven't tried to watch videos elsewhere. Is this a problem with the website, my flash player, or is my computer simply not powerful enough?

    Solved (would have deleted this thread but can't).

    That page had multiple flash player elements running (for navigation, adverts and video). Adblock all except the video and things speed up.

    Update: If I run the player behind another window (so I can hear but not see it), it runs fine! Hmm, that would tend towards hardware problems.
