Hey guys,

I own a Late 2008 Macbook with the following specs:
- 2.4 GHZ dual core
- 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
- NVIDIA Geforce 9600M GT 256MB
- OSX 10.8.3

So I've been having this problem that I hope someone can help me with.
Every single youtube video I watch, "freezes" or "breaks" (don't know what the word is here) for less than a second and it happens for every minute or so of the video. It's becoming quite the annoyance, to the point I cant properly watch a video. The audio will run fine, it's just the video that stops and continues, stops and continues...

My internet connection is very good so I can't say it's a problem with that. I've tried quitting all applications but that won't do.

Does anybody got an idea where this problem might be coming from?
Thank you
 
Sounds similar to an issue I've had in the past. Is your Adobe Flash Player up to date? If so, perhaps try re-installing?

I use Google Chrome as my web browser. From what I'm reading on a website on how to check if my flash is up to date:

"In Chrome, Flash Player will automatically be updated to the latest Google Chrome version, so you can rest assured the version you have is the latest."
