1. The videos are ON2/VP6 encoded, a codec which is handled by sw alone, not hw. This causes the video playback to be very choppy.
2. This is a Flash issue.

also the video seems to load twice for me now, you hear the audio delayed and duplicated - and the video just flickers between the two copies of the same video
