Slow start (white frame) when hardware acceleration is on

When I launch FF4, I see a white windows frame for 2-4 sec before it actually show the interface inside the frame. This is not happening if I uncheck the "Use hardware acceleration" checkbox.
However, I would like to use it...
My System is a new Dell XPS14 with a Intel core i5 (integrated HD graphic + Nvidia Geforce M420).
My windows 7 x64 is fully patched, and I just upgraded both of the graphic drivers...
Any other ideas?

'''cor-el''',
When it comes to just browsing the web it is nothing against turning off the hardware aceleration.
But in my case i want smooth playback for css3 animations, transition, jQuery.animate() etc.
In other words i want it to work the same thing as it works in Chrome or any other browser.

Preloader code will not start next frame when finished

I have this code in frame 1
"stop();
//Preloader
loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreloader);
function updatePreloader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void
//container for the progress of the site (download)
var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);
preloader_txt.text = percent+"%";
if (percent==100){
nextFrame();
In frame 2 the animation/flash application starts.
The preloader works fine BUT when it gets to frame 2 it stops. I cannot get it to start. I think it is a simple issue but I cannot see it
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks

Flash player hanging with hardware acceleration enabled

I'm having the following problem: The Flash player is working fine for some apparently random period of time, then it hangs when it is starting up in order to display a video. This appears to happen only when hardware acceleration is enabled. (I have not noticed any problems with hardware acceleration disabled, but I only discovered 24 hours ago that this helped.). The hang happens under all web browsers (Firefox reports that the Flash player crashed, but it is actually hung on start up, not crashed). After a hang occurs, trying to view any other Flash video also hangs, and all other programs that attempt to access the video card like Windows Media Player also hang. The only way to reset things and get video working again is to reboot the machine.
I suspect the problem is either the Flash player or the machine's graphics driver. I'm running Flash Player WIN 10,1,53,64 under Windows 7 64 on an Intel Core i5 machine with Intel GMA HD graphics, driver version 8.15.10.2025.
BTW, is there anyway to permanently disable Flash's use of hardware acceleration? (if I disable, the setting doesn't seem to want to stay)

Thanks. The computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad T510. Intel's utility reports:

Color management for flash player with hardware acceleration

I have tested the color management for flash player 10.2 with and without hardware acceleration (GPU) on different PCs with different video cards.
Videos that are played via flash without hardware acceleration on PC have proper color as designed in After Effects.
When I switch on hardware acceleration, the color shifts, for example green becomes lighter, although grey values are OK. I have tried this by writing a small Flash programme for playing a movie; I wrote two programmes one with color management as described in the article "Color correction in Flash Player" http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/quickstart/color_correction_as3.html and another one without color management. In both cases I got the same color shift when hardware acceleration was turned on. From the result I concluded that color management does not work when hardware acceleration is on.
My question is: are there any plans to have color management for flash player with hardware acceleration (GPU) in the near future?
We need to play complex high definition movies streaming through a high speed local area network that need hardware acceleration to avoid stuttering.

Hi, LOL at my screen moniker. That's interesting that the FF beta has an Option for that. The only problem, is that I have heard that each browser must UNcheck the H.A. I'm sure you'll find out.
Hope that works at least for FF. Let me know if you have time.
I've been checking out Apple TV and Google TV. Just saved the links and some info, haven't had time to go further. I'd prefer Apple TV over Google tho.
I have a 55" HD Sony/Blu-ray Surround Sound Speakers, etc. I hooked up the VGA cable for Internet, and WOW on the Screen/Monitor!! Now I'm thinking about the iPhone 4 with VZ too, on their pre-order list for 2/3/11!
Hard to keep up with the Technology, moving faster today for some reason.
We are under the Snow & Ice warning, getting it now. Hope I don't lose power! If so, I'll be offline for sure.
If I find anything on that H.A. for IE, I'll let you know.
Thanks,

Hardware acceleration for AVC video playback

Hello,
I looked for Adobe forum for developers but failed, so forward me please if this is not right place for the question.
We are developing a software that cuts out some unwanted scenes (such as advertisements) from a video (AVC inside MP4) with partial reencoding of the source. The result video contains some original GOPs (with a pair of SPS/PPS) followed by several reencoded GOPs (with another pair of SPS/PPS). Finally the video is played back with Adobe flash (e.g. StrobeMediaPlayback). The problem is that such videos are not played correctly with the latest Google Chrome (35.0.1916.153) and Adobe flash (14.0.0.125) on some configurations (e.g. Windows 7, 32-bit version, Nvidia card) when "Hardware acceleration" is switched on. Even if the second SPS differs from the first by even one parameter the second part of the video is not decoded. What does "Hardware acceleration" mean in this case? DXVA? Or does a browser decide what technology to use? Are there some known restrictions?
Thanks

OSMF is a framework built entirely in Actionscript 3.0, which means that it can only take advantage of those features which are enabled by the underlying Flash Player. So no additional hardware acceleration. That being said, we work closely with the Flash Player team and the FMS team, so any new features they add should find quick support in OSMF.

Text smudged/blurred - hardware acceleration on, page very slow/unresponsive when off

Other users have reported the same problem but the proposed solution does not work for me.
The text is blurred/smudged - only on Facebook, probably because the page is quite big. If I turn off hardware acceleration, the text is no longer blurry but the page becomes almost unresponsive - the smooth scroll is lost, actually, there's no scrolling at all - the page moves half-screen at a time (per scroll), or sometimes doesn't scroll at all.
My hardware isn't the newest thing out there but isn't that bad either, I'd imagine: AMD Phenom II X4 945 (4 x 3 GHz) and Sapphire Radeon HD 4670 (1 GB). So, if Firefox can't use the graphics adapter, isn't the processor powerful enough for it to properly render a page like FB?

I created a new boolean called "layout.paint_rects_separately" and set it to "true".
I haven't done much testing yet -- just opened FB a couple of times -- but I don't notice any smudging. Let's say problem solved!
I will write again here if it re-occurs.
Thank you!

Hello all,
I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
What I have tried so far to no avail:
Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Changed the watch face to display.
Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
Regards,

Hey,
I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
Have you found any solution?
Bah, this is annoying.

"video hardware acceleration required" message when opening any game

Since I upgraded to OS X 10.9, none of my games will play. I also get an error while starting VLC. The message that I receive is "video hardware acceleration required". "Video hardware acceleration is currently disabled due to safe mode operation or a driver error. Please ensure that you have a working openGL hardware renderer and try again. All of these games and apps worked perfectly before the upgrade. Please help!

In my case this was resolved by turning off display mirroring. It seems that something in Mavericks does not pick up the graphics card correctly when display mirroring is turned on.

Once firefox 4.o was installed, full screen video produced white screen. Had to exit and and restart video. Using a mac os 10.5. Disabling hardware acceleration did not fix. went back to firefox 3.6 and all is ok. Any help would be appreciated.

Once firefox 4.o was installed, when switching to full screen while watching any internet video produced a white screen but audio still playing. Switching back to small screen has a still video but audio still going. Had to exit and and restart video or open a blank new new tab then delete it and then small screen video would play. Using a mac os 10.5. Disabling hardware acceleration did not fix. went back to firefox 3.6 and all is ok. Any help would be appreciated.

Your hardware was never designed to run that old a version of OS X, it's best to update the application or find another application that is more up to date. Installing Leopard simply will not work on your system.

X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series = No hardware acceleration in games when using SPDIF o

So I play Lord of the Rings Online which is a nati've OpenAL+EAX game. I used to run my headphones directly out of the analog output on the X-Fi card and I was able to select hardware accelerated audio in game and hear sound.
Recently I decided to start using the SPDIF output into a dedicated DAC. Now hardware accelerated audio no longer works. I have to use software mode.
Does the X-Fi not support hardware acceleration in games when using the SPDIF output?

Zorlac wrote:
I am happy to report that I think it is working the way I want. I have the latest driver and pulled up the "Audio Control Panel". There is a tab called "SPDIF I/O". I had to check the box next to "Play Stereo Mix using Digital Output" in the "Digital Output" section. Now I can select the normal X-Fi option in the Lord of the Rings Online audio config section instead of having to select generic software audio.
So is the X-Fi now using its own DAC and ADC before it outputs via optical out?
...so yeah, my OCD is not over yet (more questions):
. How the heck do you prove that hardware accelerated OpenAL, EAX features, EAX effects, etc., are enabled and working? Creative Labs could market just about any new feature in EAX and the listener would have no way to prove its working it seems... Is there software to analyze which EAX features are supported, which are being used, etc.
2. Do you really have to be in Game Mode in order to take advantage of hardware acceleration and EAX feature/effects in games? It seems to me that Audio Creation Mode can support these "optionally" from what I have read online. What does optionally mean if this is true? heh
3. How do I prove that I am getting bit perfect output in Audio Creation Mode? I need some way to monitor the SPDIF optical output via hardware or software. Someone here has to know the answer to this without hooking my card into a multi-thousand dollar home theater amp to find out. Can I hook the SPDIF optical output to the optical input and some how analyze the input signal? (im just brainstorming)
With spdif out, you are not using the DACs on the card.
As for questions through 3, very good questions.
. With 4.0, 4., 5.0, or 5. speaker set up, and CMSS turned off, I think if you can hear sound out of the rear speakers when the sound is supposed to be behind you, then you can safely say EAX is working.
2. Don't know. I leave mine in game mode all the time. I have 64bit Vista, and there are no 64bit ASIO drivers, so I have no need to go into audio creation mode. Everything I do works good in game mode, and I use a different card for recording.
3. Don't know.

Mercury Playback Engine: software accel only for 5K Retina iMac, when would Adobe enable hardware acceleration???

Just curious when Adobe might be updating Premiere Pro CC list of support graphics cards for hardware accelaration.
The iMac 5K Retina has an optional upgraded AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4GB GDDR5 graphics card.
But this is apparently what happens in Premiere Pro CC when you start the program on an iMac Retina 5K with that graphics card: the hardware acceleration option is greyed out.

Looking at this, it doesn't seem that the Retina MacBook Pro's NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M is on the list. And the NVIDIA CUDA driver will give you nothing but heartache (a frequent source of kernel panics).
You might want to take your question to the Adobe Premiere discussion boad to see if there are any current 'workarounds' -> http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere.

I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture. It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button. even though when i hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top

I am having the problem when trying to take a panorama picture.
It may only take the first frame or doesn't even start at all when I press the shutter button.
even though when i hold the phone straight up and down, so that camera is at the top on the back and the home button is on the bottom on the front.
This problem is irritating me....?

To take panorama
- ensure that the panorama option is on
- press the shutter button once
- you will see a line with an arrow
- move around in a circle ( I keep the camera steady and turn myself around in a circle)
- as you do this you will see the arrow moving across the screen as it captures pictures
- at the end of the capture, you will be able to see your panorama picture
I hope that this helps, do report back.

I'm afraid you'll have to get the phone serviced, dropping the phone must have damaged additional parts inside the phone.
But Apple will not service the phone anymore, opening the phone and replacing the battery should only be done by authorized personal, not by users.
You'll have to look for a 3rd party repair shop and see if they can fix this, sorry.

Thanks for the help
I started on the installation CD OS X 10.4.2, I used Disk Utility
to partition the disk according to the document that you have proposed. unfortunately
I have not succeeded. When I partition the disk, even if I called it Macintosh HD, it
does not keep the name and it shows disk0s3 instead. I did an erase on disk.
When I mount the disk it tells me that I must repair. When I tried to repair, I got
the following message:
Volume check failed

1 HFS volume checked
1 volume could not be repaired because of an error.
I also had a message:

I used a USB 2.0 to SATA cable to adjust the formatting.
