Description claire robinson 2012-04-24 11:31:07 CEST 
With hardware acceleration enabled, when playing videos on youtube etc, the red and blue colour channels are switched.

Right clicking, selecting settings and disabling hardware acceleration, then reloading the page corrects it.

It is the same with the updated nvidia drivers
Comment 2 Miles Robinson 2012-04-24 17:16:36 CEST 
Same problem here on my system, it's a bug with the flash plugin itself.

Tested in Chromium, rekonq, and Arora.  The Arch Wiki has some relevant information concerning the bug, and links to a workaround involving a patch and the other workaround of disabling HW accel.  https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Browser_Plugins#Blue_tint_on_videos_with_Flash_and_Nvidia
