Adobe has confirmed that the decoding of H.264 does not work properly on AMD GPUs. According to the release notes of Flash Player 10.2 updates yesterday activation hardware decoding of H.264 video objects fails on AMD graphics cards supported. Adobe cautions that the specific hardware decoding Stage Video, the main novelty of Flash 10.2 Functions normally.
Unfortunately, this new mode must be supported by the embedded player by playing the video website, and few sites have already done this update. Youtube in particular is missing. Failing Stage Video is thus the old way of decoding on the GPU which should be activated, but this is not the case with Flash 10.2.
Decoding entirely the responsibility of the blow to the CPU and less powerful CPUs are found overloaded, as the APU Zacate Fusion. Adobe and AMD "would work actively to resolve this problem," which will not surprise anyone. For AMD, this bug is questioning the value of its platform Brazos since netbooks using it are unable to read a Youtube video HD.
