Comment # 1 on bug 71570 from
Sorry for not being contrtructive with this reply, but hardware decoding with
flash player was always shoddy even with nvidia for which it was intended in
the first place and bug reports like this should be directed to the flash
developers first since the flash plugin is not open source and has issues with
nvidia too (read below).

Also note that the plugin destined for browsers that are not Chrome will not be
updated anymore so the only possible solution would be filing a bug for the
Chrome version of Flash (which in my experience is worse than the Firefox&al
flash on radeon at the moment).

The only site which works ok ish is youtube (there might be others), but hw
decoding enabled crashes the plugin on many other sites.
This happened with nvidia (i had a nvidia 8200 IGP which had vdpau B class
which worked very well with VDPAU otherwise) and it still happens with my
A8-5500 (Radeon 7560 IGP) with the latest git Mesa, kernel, drm.

So its most likely a Flash issue.

Funny thing is that the AMD GPU with radeon/VDPAU works better with the legacy
flash on Seamonkey/Firefox (nvidia had inverted colors sometimes on youtube and
HW decoding wasnt working consitently)...
