YouTube all "red" in Debian Squeeze
Well, this is hard to explain... So what I'll do first is leave a screen-shot so you can begin to understand what it's all about: http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/521...alla040311.png
As you can see, every video I try to play on YouTube (and youtube is the only website that fails, not others) is red colored and looks like that. I'm under a Debian Squeeze system, the problem came up during the same session. I've actually upgraded a few packages, but after the upgrade, nothing happened, it began to fail a few hours later. This are the packages: Code:
libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1+squeeze1 -> 1.28.3-1+squeeze2 What I did next was replace flashplayer-mozilla with flashplugin-nonfree, but the same thing happened. So I've upgraded to Sid's version, same thing. Then I've installed Adobe's flash player from the official website and the last version... Same thing. The weird thing about all this is that I have Virtual Box OSE installed with Arch Linux running in a virtual machine. If I play a video on Arch Linux, it works great. So, I don't know where to begin to solve this. I've tried everything I can think of. Even check Xorg's log and everything. But I haven't find anything. I don't know if this is also happening to any of you. Anyway, any help is appreciated. Thanks!! |
Perhaps you can find a solution at

Thanks. Now I have to go, so I don't have a lot of time to try everything out.
Deleting the cookies solved the problem, but if I login, if goes red again. So there might be another solution. When I come back I'll try a few other things. Thanks a lot!! (I hadn't found that link on Google) |

Thats cool that you found the solution. But *wow* what a weird looking problem.

I've managed to find a new solution (it wasn't me who found it, actually, but anyway).
You need to go to a site that has a Flash animation and isn't youtube, (i.e. www.flash.com.ar), then right click on the flash animation and click on Configuration. Then click on the first tab and uncheck "Hardware acceleration". That solve the problem for me. I don't know if deactivating hardware acceleration might bring some new problems but at least youtube works. Thanks to everyone. Kind regards. |
