Freezes why ?

Post by CalinTM » 2015-04-28, 11:10

For example i got freezes in the browser, they occur when im listening to musig on youtube.

For example i have a youtube vid (using flash player to play it), then a buddy on steam writes something to me, the steam window appears, and when i click the browser again, it freezes, and stops responding.

Also, when im playing a youtube vid, again, and on the other tab, i have opened the site, imgur, to upload a image, i get a freeze again....

Seems everything is related to a tab opened with youtube videos in it....

Seems everything is related to Youtube. Depending on what player you are using, this can be a flash issue or a direct HTML5 video issue (usually caused by poor 64-bit drivers).

More information about your computer would be very helpful, as well as the output of the "Graphics" section of help -> troubleshooting information.
Also include which player you're using for YouTube (see: http://www.youtube.com/html5 ) and which flash player you have installed.

Using the default player on youtube, which is adobe flash player. Using a gtx 980 plugged with dual-link DVI, on a 144hz monitor. If thats what u asked me. Latest flash player installed.

So basically u say that if i install Pale Moon 32-bit version, i will have less problems ?

You should if you have not already done it, deactivate Hardware acceleration both in Flash and in the Browser options!

Flash player without hardware acc. + browser without hardware acc.

Same thing. Opened a vid on youtube + imgur site on another tab, as soon as i press on imgur, start upload, i get a browser freeze, and no responding.

Installed Pale Moon 32-bit, and i dont have anymore of those above problems.

Seems the 64-bit isnt compatible with flash player 100%, or web sites in general ?!

No, you are wrong. The browser is fully compatible with Flash and "websites in general". The answers are right there in Pale Moon's x64 download page.
