I've always had this problem with Firefox, but I have finally decided to fix it. I have flash player 11.2.202.491 on Firefox 39.0 and Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome. When I go to play a video stream like JW player or others, I can play full-screen once, if I minimize the video and maximize it again, the screen just freezes with the view of the video frame that was playing when I tried to go full-screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have no clue why this happens, but it always does.

Please do not instruct me to play Youtube videos in HTML5 this is not a solution, its just a workaround for Youtube, I'm trying to get firefox behave properly.

So, you fullscreen it, minimize the window, then when you maximize it the video freezes. If you pause the video and hit play again does it load?

Or does the whole browser freeze? If its not just the browser it sounds similar to this. but is a different version:

If this happens on other profiles as well check the flash full screen settings. click on the website's icon in the address bar and hit "More Information…".

Once you're in Page Info, go to Permissions, and have a look for the "Enter Fullscreen" setting.

The browser doesn't freeze however the screen freezes, but I can escape it by CTRL + TAB into another tab or any other way. Pausing and playing just pauses the sound and starts it again.

Got it, so the browser freezes when you try to maximize the screen after minimizing. And its not the ubuntu thread since their whole computer freezes.

Another work around I can suggest is to make sure that this has not become corrupt: localstore.rdf, which does not make sense but is a top Google search. (Also another is starting the os in safe mode, but incorrect for linux?)

Since we are talking about Flash player, I would suggest trying shumway https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../Shumway

I will give it a shot, in the mean time I uninstalled shockwave plugin, and now most videos play and behave normally, if not VLC kicks in, but its not that great, its OK.
