the strange thing is that with easyvideo.swf, the same flv video is  
played quite smoothly on my 533mhz (not the hd videos of course).
I know that the parsing and the execution of a youtube player is more  
heavy than play a video from disk but it is also strange that on my  
933mhz i pass from 40% of cpu when i play the easyvideo file to >100%  
of cpu (that grow always) when i play the youtube movie. It is so that  
i think there is something strange.. but i don't find it.. and i  
assure you that i'm trying to test every single piece of related code..
I've also tested the gnash suite to be sure that all is ok.. and it is  
all ok.. weird..
