[mythtv-users] mythnetvision and youtube == high CPU even with flash "square"

[Brian J. Murrell]

The pointer to adobe's flash 10.2 "square" in the other thread got me to
experimenting with mythnetvision this morning.  I was able to download
and install the 10.2 flash release and verified that it indeed does work
decently with vdpau in firefox.

With mythfrontend however, I still see quite excessive CPU usage playing
YouTube videos however, much more than Firefox with the same flash on
the same machine yields in fact.

Is there any reason why mythfrontend would not benefit from flash 10.2?

Since this is my first real foray into mythnetvision I thought I'd share
a couple of other observations/questions.

It's really quite annoying to have flashplayer inside of a bordered myth
UI.  That is, why not jump to full-screen?  I don't even see the
full-screen option on the player controls that I see when I visit
Youtube with a browser.

While viewing content from (say) Youtube there seems to be no way to
exit or get back to the previous screen.  Even when I put the mouse
pointer outside of the player window no keyboard actions seem at all
useful, even after the video has stopped playing.  The only thing
possible at that point seems to be to kill the frontend and relaunch it.

Thots on any or all of this?
