Watch flash movies with greater performance on old PCs

Because of low powered hardware, performance of online flash videos on older PCs, cheap Netbooks and mobile phones are poor.

To watch flash movies in better performance on these devices, here is plug-in for Firefox users. The add-on called Low Quality Flash uses JavaScript to alter Object and Embed tags on a page setting Adobe Flash objects to "Low Quality.

By doing so, the performance of flash videos vastly improves on lower-powered platforms devices.

More over, this add-on will also help you, for example, if there's a site you love to read that just so happens to load 20 flash advertisements next to the article text

Download Low Quality Flash from Mozilla add-on site.
