What happens :



(1) video freezes after a few seconds of idling while audio remains intact.



(2) video resumes if I move the mouse.






What I tried :



(1) right click on a video -> "settings" -> uncheck "enable hardware acceleration"



(2) Chromium. (I usually use Firefox.)



(3) sudo pm-powersave false



(4) removed and reinstalled flash plug-in.



sudo apt-get autoremove flashplugin-installer



sudo apt-get autoremove flashplugin-nonfree



sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer



(5) installed Flash-Aid and used it. (Both stable and beta options.)



No improvement so far.






UPDATE (More Info) :



sudo lshw -c display

Lubuntu is by design a light-weight desktop environment with no compositor installed.



Flash I think requires some-sort of compositor to be present.



Suggestion would be to install the lightweight compositor such as xcompmgr and test this to see if Flash works correctly.



to install



sudo apt-get install xcompmgr


Then to test - open a terminal and run



nohup xcompmgr &


The nohup and & is important to run xcompmgr in the background including after the terminal has closed.



to run the xcompmgr from login



If xcompmgr works then you may wish to consider running this from login.



To do this first create the autostart folder if it doesnt already exist:



mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart


Then create a xcompmgr desktop file



lxshortcut -o ~/.config/autostart/xcompmgr.desktop


enter image description here



logout and login.



N.B. this picture shows what the xcompmgr.desktop file contains as well how to confirm xcompmgr is running.
