I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. A few days back, I downloaded Firefox for desktop. But, whether I try to play videos on YouTube, something strange happens. The audio of the videos is fine and the quality is okay, but in some instances the quality of the video isn't good, because some blurry lines appear. Then the quality of the video fixes itself, but after a few minutes the lines appear again. This happens throughout the whole video, with any kind of video on Youtube. My computer runs on Windows 7, 32 bit system. I had to change to Chrome because the errors in the YouTube videos doesn't happen with this browser.

I guess I would like to know if I can fix this problem with Firefox. If I can't then I guess I will just stick with Chrome. Thanks to anyone who will answer this question. Have a nice day :)

Hello, try to uninstall adobe flash player, after uninstalled go: Start> Search>% appdata%, search the Adobe folder, delete it! Then download and install again! If your problem is not resolved reintale Firefox, and try Microsoft Silverlight
