[PC-BSD Testing] Blue People FlashPlayer

[Andreas Hotz]

Hallo Freebsd flash maintainer !

about your workaround:
disable the hardware acceleration
( right click in the video for example in 'Youtube'
--> settings and disable:

AFAIK --> normal colour !
          --> 1080HD speed as well !

so back from `Avatar' Planet to earth...

Thanks for your support

A.Hotz
