Thanks; after loading flash 9 plugin (reported on about:plugins as 9.0 r124) things got a lot better
It now plays nicely on a p3 500 MHz 64 MB RAM with LDM_DIRECTX=true. Using Debian Lenny - xfce Then I reinstalled flash 10 from adobe's tar.gz (not the deb as previously). Surprisingly, tests with it (reported as 10.0 r12 on about:plugins) reported aprox the same numbers than Flash 9. I was expecting a bigger diference. Both played the video well, with about 0-2% more on CPU usage for flash 10. With LDM_DIRECTX=false sound is good, video is somewhat jerky with both plugins, but after seeing flash 10 requisites (800 MHz) I will no complain about it on a 500 MHz machine.
