Sure, feel free to close the bug, but this demonstrates that more testing needs to be done on older PCs before releasing new versions. Not everyone can afford the latest and greatest and Ubuntu is supposed to be developed mindful of community needs and widespread usefulness. Cheers.

The previous version of this application had the Flashplayer plugin installed and working perfectly. Now, on this new version, I can only see flickering pieces of the video images when I press the F11 key repeatedly to go between full screen and window modes, as if a black overlay is blocking an underlying image from being viewed. I also just tried playing a regular (non Flashplayer) MP4 video and that encounters the same problem. Please advise a workaround. Thanks in anticipation.
