probably gstreamer and friends is sucking too much of your cpu with
overhead and thus pixelation occurs due to lack of cpu time for realtime
high quality decoding.
I repeat, try vlc and/or mplayer with its firefox plugins which imho has
much more optimized video decoding than what the gstreamer spaghetti code
provides.
Is your cpu old and/or are you playing this on battery power (so cpu
doesn´t use 100% of its speed).
Quite the contrary: this is a 8-core i7 desktop with a GeForce GT9800. It
should handle any videos just fine ;-) (as it always has done until F18).
There's clearly something wrong, I just don't know exactly what it is. CPU
usage doesn't spike too much while watching videos.
