However this doesn't solve the problem for the WebM (html5) codec (Firefox can't play the h.264 as far as I can tell). There are other tips on the net how to disable video plugins for Firefox, not sure how wished for, or easy to use this is. Disabling all plugin use in Firefox, cause fallback behavior where the plugin is played in the browser itself, thus transferring the problem back to the browser. This also happens in chromium.

This info may be of some use, tracking this bug down (considering it may have to do with javascript or browsers in general for the issue). Javascript engine: Firefox: SpiderMonkey (?) Chrome: V8 Epiphany: Unable to say with any degree of certainty Layout Engine: Firefox: Gecko Chrome: Webkit Epiphany: Webkit Can possibly be advisable to figure out: Does problem occur on unity, gnome-shell, or other window managers, with or without compiz, e.g. with or without Ice Tea or other plugins installed?

[Bug 225165] Re: Firefox consumes far too much CPU ressources with web pages involving Adobe flash plugin
It happens in other browsers such as Epiphany as well in Gnome Shell with the Adobe Flash Plugin. But also in firefox with moonlight 4 or gnash for example. While in Minitube for example cpu usage remains quite a bit lower. So, based on some info found, there might possible be a different problem going on additionally, namely on (some system setups) some kind of extensive CPU use when viewing any kind of video in a web browser. What could be the cause of this? A (short term) solution, might be to use something like cpu-limited and a cache to limit cpu usage and write ahead the video in the cache. Although even better would be to find out the cause of the problem. From what I found this may possibly be somewhat related to what kind of processor and/ or graphics card is used. If this a wider problem than say Ubuntu, Linux kernel problem, Firefox, or Flash, I second getting in touch with each other to work on this.

I noticed another strange artefact with flash-rendering. When I go on the site http://www.asus.com/index.aspx, for example, menus are hidden by flash content. But I was first annoyed surfing this site : 1. open www.matbe.com (a hardware site I often read) and open Ubuntu's System Monitor ; 2. open several tabs (use the news tab - or actualités in French -, right on the page) ; 3. just watch graphs. Note that switching from one tab to another may cause some graphical artefacts to occur. More precisely, it seems the Flash content appears first, preventing HTML to be rendered for a while. It also seems that some Flash contents are more concerned by this issue than others (like some AMD adds). With more tabs, it becomes very hard to scroll down with the mouse's wheel ! Flashblock became also quickly a good friend of mine ;-) ... Anyway, I remember I observed similar behavior of a Gentoo system, installed on the laptop of a friend (same model as mine). He ran Firefox 2. So it is possible that this bug is not exclusively related to Ubuntu, but rather to Firefox or the flashplugin-nonfree package.
