seems to be a rom issue. had the same problem two weeks ago. the adobe flash app just works on < gb and ics roms, it isn't supported any longer for jb+ roms. try an alternativ youtube player or another rom/build.
i downloaded the youtube app, and it works from there, but still not in the browser,
i guess there are still a pretty high amount of bugs to solve

I've got the 10.1 flash and it was updated today too but any flash videos I watch are often juddering. It's almost like stop motion animation. Does anyone else's player play ok? If I use skyfire browser they generally play ok but I prefer the stock browser.
Also, on previous phones if I click a YouTube link from a forum the YouTube app would open to play it. On my dhd it goes to the YouTube site to play and then I get the juddery issue above. Is there a way of making the YouTube app open automatically when clicking a link?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
On my phone all the flash videos play fine and in HD. (it played fine with the original flash that came with the phone, but I have now installed the one from the market to be sure to get the latest updates).
As for youtube, all the links open in full screen in the player (sometimes I need to click on the icon to get it to open in fullscreen).
The DHD comes with youtube 1.6, but I have updated it with version 2 from the market.
Could you post a link to a flash video youve watched that played smoothly so i can check mine?
EDIT: for example can you play this video smoothly?

No, this one judders as well. But when you play it there is a popup text that says "This video is not optimized for mobile devices". So, the website is at fault for not providing a web optimized video.
But this is the first time I have a problem with a video, all of the other flash videos I have come across always play properly.
You can try the videos on bbc.com, cnn.com, youtube.com, etc... Either you will get a popup asking you if you want to play the video in the play or you can play it on the page.

It's there, the only youtube version I see on the market is version 2.0.26.
Usually when you can't see something in the market it's because it isn't avaialbe for your area. I don't know if this is the problem you are experiencing.
Google also provides it at m.google.com/youtube , but I don't know if it's the same version.
Seems that the Flash player is not working in my A7. Some sites, like ESPN, just show the Flash Player logo where the video should be playing.. saying "Get Adobe Flash Player". I see that it is installed on the unit, but is not the latest version(10.1 vs 10.2.152.26). Should I try to upgrade the player or try something else?? I am a newbie to this..so looking for any help out there...Thanx!!!

Google Android Market
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.adobe.flashplayer
CURRENT VERSION: 10.1.106.16
Are you sure that Adobe released new version for Android ?
No.. you are correct. Didn't think to check if the Flash Player I was looking at was for Android. When I look at the application info it says the version on my A7 is 10.1.120.4. Still I am at a loss for what I can do about getting video to play on these sites, such as ESPN. No problem watching movie trailers on IMDB though... HELP!!

Just curious, are you using the stock WebKit browser, or something you downloaded like Opera Mini?
ESPN seems to work correctly with mine. (stock WebKit)
Just the stock browser. Only thing I have upgraded on the unit is the official upgrade from eLocity. It was working then just seemed to stop..Maybe I should do a factory reset...

I get a couple weird glitches once in a while, most seem to be solved by simply power cycling the tab.
Actually the first question I ask when people bring computer problems to me at work... "Did you reboot it yet?" lol
No...dont think its that, as I turn it off everyday. Just went to cnn.com...no video. Says "this CNN feature is optimized for Adobe Flash Player version 9 or higher." The uninstall button is the only button highlighted when I select it under "Manage Applications > Downloaded > Adobe Flash Player 10.1" And when I click on "Running" tab (applications running), its not there. I think my Flash Player is disabled or just not working. Maybe I should uninstall and try to reinstall.
In your browser, go to settings and make sure 'Enable Plugins' is set to always on.
Adobe Flash Won't show under Running even if your browser is currently on a flash page. IDK why.
THAT DID THE TRICK!!!! Thanx Zahg!!!
I have american android 2.3.7 CM7,2 NAND
I have installed adobe flash player 11.
Im using opera mobile browser or dolphin browser.
When Im watching a flash video the player is not able to play it properly. The image suddenly stops whilst the sound is going on. Or the video stops working completely.
Could somebody tell me where the problem could be ?
The problem is in ADOBE
They screwed flash player lately. You can't do much.

I'm using TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.7.6 and use maxthon browser (latest version) and touch wood all flash seems to be working well for me, Maybe give maxthon a go?
You know, flash player is also hardware dependant. So if adobe doesn't fully support older hardware then video playback is not smooth. Also last updates made it only worse. Evo 3D is very powerful unit, and even on software rendering far exceeds HD2 capability
Uggggh. This is the fourth time this has happened. What seems to trigger it is forcing the phone to turn off. I can't record videos, watch videos, or anything that involves hardware video decoding.
Whenever I watch a video in the Gallery, it says "Can't play this video." - I can use MX player to watch the videos on software decoding mode, but never Hardware Decoding mode.
The only way to fix it is to flash stock with Wugfresh's Root Toolkit.
Has ANYONE run into this problem besides me? Is there any hope for a fix. This is devastating. I'll have to reset all my work.
You might get more answers if you include what rom and kernel you are using

Stock with root. It's happened while unrooted too.
Try flashing custom rom or flash stock rom again see if it fixes the problem, If not relock bootloader and send back to google for a new one
Might be hardware problem

Yeah, flashing stock always fixes it, so I doubt it's a hardware problem. It's just weird that it even happens in the first place, and nobody else seems to have the problem.
I have the same problem after i tried many video player apps on Google Play and websites. My N4 worked perfectly before, I thinks this is software errors (but this problems still exists when i removed all installed video apps).
It works again after I made a Factory Data Reset (Settings -> Backup and Reset -> Factory Data Reset).
Same problem
I have same problem with my Nexus 4. The system is stock. I don't even know much about rooting etc.
I cannot play the videos from any app, Chrome, Youtube, Gallery. I can only watch from software decode mode of video apps. I cannot even record video from my camera
I realized this problem after using MX player. MX player cannot play movies perfectly on my hardware mod. Some videos don't have sound, some are not smooth. Thus I am using software mod. Now MX player cannot allow select hardware mode.
I will reset my phone tomorrow and will not install MX player. I will post the result from here.
----After Reset----
I have reset my phone and installed all apps previously installed except MX Player. The problem is over.

I have similar problem the video is divided in 3 parts and in black and white
i solved it by reinstall you tube app
youtube on PA 5.1
I'm having a similar problem, but it is not limited to youtube. I have tired plex too, and it also fails to play a video.
When I play a video youtube I just get "There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry"
In plex the video fails to play telling me to restart my plex media server and to reboot the phone.
I have rebooted the phone and it makes no difference.
Anybody have any ideas on how to fix that? Everything else seems to work properly on this rom so far, and the stock rom is getting more and more laggy which is why I'm trying different roms.
Anybody have any ideas?
**Update**
For some reason a video would start without video at times. When that happens if I change the quality to something lower than 480p, it actually works.
MX player works perfectly regardless of resolution.
Plex is completely broken, it will not work regardless of what I set the video to, it fails.
On a HTC One M8
