some YouTube videos not displaying correctly, pixelated

Question

Hi,Ever since I've installed the new version of flash I've noticed some videos on youtube not working properly. The videos appear very pixelated with lots of green/purple artifacts throughout. It affects maybe 10-20% of videos, and they mostly seem to be older ones. All HD content etc. is fine. I haven't run into the problem on other sites yet, but I don't frequent them very often.Here's an example screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/apPzW.jpgLink to affected video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XJoruB_JtQI tested on my other computer and it looks fine.I'm using:Win7 Pro 64-bitChrome browser (tested in IE 32-bit same problem)Intel i3 w/ integrated graphicsFlash player version WIN 10,1,53,64Any ideas?Thanks

It works when I disable hardware acceleration. Is this going to hurt performance on other videos/will I need to re-enable it anytime I want to watch an HD video or something though?

This means that your graphics/video/display adapter or its device drivers do not fully support GPU hardware acceleration. You can check if a newer device driver is available that has better support of hardware acceleration, but as it works for you now, better leave it alone.

I cannot see your screenshot; please upload images directly to this forum using the camera button in the editor.Try to disable hardware acceleration; this may improve video quality.
