So my specs are something like: AMD Athlon 64 x2 5600+ Dual core 2.8 (i will change it to phenom ii x4 965)
Nvidia GeForce GT 630 2 gb 128 bit
4 gb ram ddr2
windows 7 64 bit
default resolution 1920x1080
and Chrome os updated to last version

So, when i try to play a video in full screen it doesnt work smooth more than 720p. 720p works fine but 1080p starts lagging even 60 or not 60 fps. I dont understand if i have to install any codec, i thought that flash is already installed, i installed it again still laggy, i just dont know why it does happen, i know that 1080p has really low system requirements, i dont talk about higher that doesnt even work for me, the video blocks. I want to solve this problem for once, thanks.

i dont even know what category to choose.

Ok, well clearly speed isn't an issue. Maybe look into updating the driver for the GPU. Maybe Try a different browser like Firefox.

I don't think Flash is the issue since YouTube doesn't use Flash anymore and Flash is disabled in Chrome. Try enabling/disabling hardware acceleration in Chrome. Make sure that the power saving settings allow for "maximum performance".

1 -uninstall and reinstall your Graphics driver
2- clear the browser catch from C:\users\youruser\appdata\local\google\ delete the all files and folders
3 - go to Run type " %temp% delete the all files there everything - if and of them didnt work for you then you can try to change your browser but i think these steps will work prefect !

thanks
