I've installed the update, and this significantly improves performance on youtube videos, most of them look smoother and fast... looks like a great improvement from Adobe...
See ya!!!
My point was; my computer won't work on the update, in fact it knocked out all my videos everywhere.
Hey Inspiron just as a matter of interest what security you using as mine had a few problems with the 64bit version until they fixed a few bugs.
Plus since I first downloaded it there have been quite a few updates.

Flash player Beta 11.2 released.
version: 11.2.202.18/19
Download Adobe Flash Player 11.2 BetaInformationThe key features and benefits of Flash Player 11.2 beta are:
- Multi-threaded video decoding (Windows, Mac OS, and Linux) — The video decoding pipeline is now fully multi-threaded. This feature should improve the overall performance on all platforms. Note that this feature is a significant architecture change required for other future improvements.
- Flash Player background updates (Windows) — New versions of the runtimes can now be delivered more effectively to the end user with this enhanced updating mechanism (Background update is only available in the release versions of Flash Player).
Nice to see that it gives the option of whether to enable the auto update or not during the install. Much better than the old way of it being enabled by default (and only showing an update was available when you first load Windows, or at least that was the only time I ever saw it), and having to use the unknown to most online settings manager to disable it.
11.2 works great in my firefox 10.01a1 x64 browser, the watermark is irritation in videos where it obscures controls (but they still work); it's downright obnoxious in flash apps tho.
any way to turn it off? i already know what version it is, I installed it.
Looks like you have the Incubator build:
SourceIncubator builds are not preview, alpha or beta quality. It's before that state - this is code under active development. The watermark is a visual indicator of that fact. Many companies follow this practice for pre-release software - for example, Microsoft Windows pre-release builds have a watermark with version in the bottom right corner of the screen to indicate it an evaluation and not a final version.
Also, Flash Player is one of the most widely distributed pieces of software and our audience is quite broad. End users are by far our biggest customer segment. We need to make sure people - developer or end user - that install Incubator builds know and understand what they're getting themselves into. In the past, we have seen links to previews and betas delivered out of context of the content we have on Labs that explains that pre-releases have not yet gone through security review, may not be stable, etc. These builds don't give users auto-update notification and can make it difficult for a user to install a release player (because it is a later version, or you must run the uninstaller before you install a different version).
These links always have the latest version:

the 'SOURCE' link in A Guy's post above yours has a number of patronizing comments by emmy and another adobeite re the watermarking and 'beta' status, along with some ignored but useful comments from earlier this year that they didn't act on in this release either. i remember interacting with emmy a couple of years ago on adobe's developer forum when there was no x64 build of flash and also got some very patronizing replies. she's a high muckity-muck in the adobe 'customer support' heirarchy, and frankly i'm surprised she's still there. being nice with legitimate and constructive criticism is not their strong point.
