Question / Help Full screen Flash video freezing in Firefox

Hi,

Recently I've upgraded to Windows 10, and that has meant switching from Chrome to Firefox for Hardware Accelerated video recording using Window Capture. I've found though that when I make flash video full screen in Firefox, the preview in OBS just freezes, and only resumes when I exit full screen. This never happened in Chrome.

I've tried googling but found nothing. Is there any known problem with this? or better, a solution?

Thanks

This might happen when you use Window Capture, because the flash fullscreen window is technically no longer the "Firefox" window that obs is recording, try using Screen Capture or just add the video in post.

Hi,

Had a quick look in the source area, and yeah, when I make the flash video full screen, it adds an extra window called plugin-container, so it's just a matter of having to change to that when I need to record full screen. I guess it's because Flash is a stand alone install for Firefox, and not integrated.
