Is there a way to download the videos to watch them? both machines
play DVDs good.
In Safari ... IIRC:
Start playing back the video in Safari
then you can open the Window > Activity, see what link is steadily
increasing, and double click that. It opens a blank window
if you then look at Window > Downloads, you'll see it being downloaded
to your download location (you can now close the blank window)
When it finishes downloading, name the video.flv file ... yourname.flv
(keeping .flv), and it plays back nicely in something like VLC.
(and I have a DA Dual 533 G4 under 10.5.8)
Here's VLC:

I really think some of the problem playing back video clips in a
browser, is a download timing issue ... at its worst, you can see it
start and stop when it reaches the limit of what has been downloaded
while its playing back in the browser ... really aggravates me that
Apple hasn't straightened the problem out.
It seemed to be happening in Quicktime, when I first tried
ClickToFlash > Playback in Quicktime
Nevertheless ... Fire Adobe ... hire someone else to do videos.
