Choppy Youtube

[technomancer]

Try seeing if there are different video driver options.  I'm not at my pc, but I think if you go to your menu and type in the word driver, you'll see the app that allows you to choose a different driver if one is available.

Furthermore, I stand by my previous suggestions.  Different browsers treat YouTube videos differently because of how they handle Adobe Flash.  Chromium by default has no flash, and I think Firefox uses a legacy version of flash.

This link might be more than you'd care to review as a newbie, but I'll put it here as a reference for the community at large:  http://www.howtogeek.com/193876/using-fi...-outdated/

I also say install MiniTube as a backup.  It is a desktop client for YouTube videos.  And it doesn't require Flash.  Last I checked, the version in the repository doesn't work on Linux Lite.  You'd have to download the *.deb file from Minitube's website to get the version that does work: http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube.

This worked for me. Just click on the link he provided and install. Minitube doesn't have video artifacts/tearing/skipping, on any of my setups. (Sent a thanks to you torreydale)
I think i will be joining that project, maybe help out since there is no way to log into youtube that i can see. Simple search only, correct me if i'm wrong.
(Lets not forget Adobe Flash is all messed up now in it's current state. My win 7, 8, 10,and debian computers all have different issues with it as well.)
