For me it was just the other way around. HTML5 mode played much (very much!) more smooth than flash player. I opted in early by that time for switching YT to HTML5 player. This was for Chrome, of course, because by that time Firefox wasn't really compatible. You probably really should check your graphics stack. If you have an at least somewhat decent machine (something which was built during the last 5 years), you should have absolutely no problems playing videos in the HTML5 player. Even my aging machine in the office (which didn't play smooth videos in the flash player) runs full HD streaming videos smoothly in the HTML5 player - no stuttering, no blocking, no framedrops. This was different with the flash player which looked like it dropped every second frame in fullscreen mode - but at least it did not stutter due to that "optimization". Maybe give some information about your graphics stack and configuration... -- Regards, Kai Replies to list-only preferred.
