Flash video flickers black every few seconds (predominantly YouTube).

Everything is up-to-date. Tried everything in this question:

Any ideas?

To the best of my knowledge, YouTube has completed moved over to HTML5 technology, so users are no longer watching videos using Adobe Flash Player, but rather the builtin HTML5 technology on their browser.

Please visit the YouTube HTML5 information page and let us know if any of the video formats listed are not checked.
