hi,
with current version of virtualbox the flash movies freeze.
no difference with different flash/browser versions, firefox, ie etc. same problem.
hardware acceleration on windows / flash enabled or not makes no difference too...
regards, jan

Re: flash movies freeze
How much video ram are you allocating for your guests? I usually give it all 128 mb, not sure if this will help. I DO have to turn off Flash HW acceleration or Flash crashes on ALL my guests on 3 different hosts too.

i had this problem on my previous laptop with nvidia graphics - not freezing, crashing..
now it's only a freezing problem...

Re: flash movies freeze
ATI Mobility and Nvidia both here, I pretty much turn it off on every host upon first use of a browser after adding flash. Seems to be a ocmmon issue.jmar83_the2nd wrote:"I DO have to turn off Flash HW acceleration or Flash crashes on ALL my guests on 3 different hosts too."

Re: flash movies freeze
NOW I'VE FOUND THE PROBLEM: the svn client "tortoise svn" in version 1.6...
i tried to restart my computer, then i got a message something like "Can't quit process: tsvncache.exe"
after that, it was completetly impossible to restart ot shutdown the virtualized system. (so i've closed it in the menu: machine -> close)
then i unistalled tortoise 1.6.x and done a restart. after that, in installed tortoise 1.7.x, and done a restart again. there was no problems anymore with flash after the next start...
IF FLASH MOVES CRASH: yes, it's a graphics problem
IF FLASH MOVIES STOP (MAYBE WITH BUFFERING) BUT THEY ARE DOWNLODED WITH 100%: may be a graphics problem, bust i think in most cases (80%) it's not... in my case it was a problem with another running process "tsvncache.exe".
"Seems to be a ocmmon issue."
yes, virtualized operating system do generally run better (not faster but more stable) without graphics hw acceleration...
