aprosklitos Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Hello to all of you! I have sucssesfully install Hazards Snow Leopard today and updated to 10.6.8 using Legacy kernel for 10.6.8. Everything works great including games and HD video playback in vlc, the only problem i face is video playback in flash (youtube, dailymotion etc) freezes every 2-3 seconds, if i play youtube videos with html5 everything works great! problem occours on both chrome and safari! my build: Asus M2N-SLI AMD X2 6000+ nVidia GeForce 9600GT 3 SATA HDDs 1 SATA DVD-RW 2GB RAM Just to add: Flash in safari is updated to last one, and in chrome the included one with latest chrome.

assoricks Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 What about running Safari in 32-bit mode? That did the trick for me as I had a similar issue with flash and video playback in Safari on 10.6.8 on my AMD machine (same cpu ^^, but MSI board). Are you using GraphicsEnabler=Yes, NVEnabler.kext or ATYInit.kext? I had some issues with GraphicsEnabler. Video was juddering on my 8600 GT, i then used NVEnabler or ATYInit. Both worked fine for me and fixed my video issues. I had some issues too when i moved a window. The content in the windows freezed. assoricks :-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279838-youtube-problem-flash-video-playback-freezing/#findComment-1827534 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aprosklitos Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 i cant see any 32bit option so i think my computer runs in 32bit mode (i think because of the nforceata.kext) im using nvenabler.kext i dont have any other issues with my video performance, for example i play CS:Souce and Batman: Arkham Asylum without a glitch! so i think the problem is on flash player only! any other idea? thanks for reply! Also some Flash games i tried in FB run very well!

assoricks Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Have you done patching yet? ; http://www.osx86.net/desktops/14304-guide-use-more-than-4gb-ram-amd-32-64-bit-apps-working.html Most of the issues i had were fixed by patching some system files. (I use 64-bit mode aka "-force64") I would suggest to backup your files before doing that. I don't think it harms your system, but just in case ;-) Maybe this could also help you : http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=253773 Btw. you can easily check if you're on 32 or 64-bit. Open "Activity Monitor" and have a look on the right side. Does it say "Intel (64 bit)" or just "Intel"?

aprosklitos Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 i dont think i can run in 64bit because AppleNForceATA.kext is 32bit only, whenever i try to boot in 64bit mode it load superVIAATA.kext and i get still waiting for root device! any other suggestion besides 64bit? (im on 32 bit, i run uname -a and it says kernel i386) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279838-youtube-problem-flash-video-playback-freezing/#findComment-1827870 Share on other sites More sharing options...

assoricks Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 64-Bit mode on AMD isn't good. You can't run 32-bit apps on it. Boot with "arch=i386 -force64". System itself runs on 32-bit, but you're able to run 64-bit apps. You'll probably have to run Safari in 32-bit mode. assoricks EDIT: And you don't need 64-bit compatible drivers too ;-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279838-youtube-problem-flash-video-playback-freezing/#findComment-1827990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
