Flash Player 10.1 introduces hardware-based video acceleration

[loxety]

Found this information mentioned a little in another part of the forum.. after researching, I found the download link.

I have installed this and it seems a little smoother. I already had version 10 installed, I did not uninstall first before installing 10.1 and it works ok.
