This is very anoying for many Falsh-based menus, becuase almost everything is white. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to Homestarrunner.com or similar flash site 2.Go to any cartoon (Homestar Runner PAY PLUS! is especially problematic) 3.Attempt to see through the areas of white blocking almost the entire screen until movement occurs. Actual Results: White boxes until the pixels under them changed. Expected Results: Being able to see my Flash cartoon right away. SOmetimes clicking will make the white go away, but not usually.

Can you be more specific here? Screenshots, specific URLs, version of Flash installed?

(In reply to comment #1) > Can you be more specific here? Screenshots, specific URLs, version of Flash > installed? > http://www.homestarrunner.com/characters2.html is particularly bad. It only usually happens if you click links from inside the Homestarrunner.com web page. If you switch tabs, it goes away.

I tried several cartoons and could not repro this in a recent 1.8branch build (I also looked at this a while ago and didn't see it in 1.0.x, either).

I can repro this. Camino 1.0.2 RC, Shockwave Flash 8.0 r24. STR: 1. Visit link in comment 2 2. Choose a video 3. Hit back

I wonder if this might be another case of bug 309119 / bug 322850 -type behavior? I was able to sort-of reproduce it some of the time this morning, but not at all yesterday evening. Does this happen in Firefox 1.5.0.x or Bon Echo 2.0 Alpha 3?

In Firefox 1.5.0.x and Bon Echo 2.0, it flashes white (with the same dimensions as the white box we have) for just an instant before fixing itself.

Well, given that this has a dupe and doesn't occur in Bon Echo, confirming.

I've seen this. For some reason, the entire Flash plugin doesn't repaint, but only the bits which change.

Tested this bug with most current Flash player, v 9,0,28; Camino nightly trunk version 2006111420 (v1.2+), both running under Mac OS 10.3.9. Site in comment #2 still displays behavior exhibited in comment #4.

Has anyone looked at this in a recent (Cocoa) Minefield?

Can someone who sees this regularly please have a look in the latest Minefield trunk? http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

I can reproduce this on trunk with the latest released Flash but not the new Quartz-based beta, so this may well be a plugin issue. If it's working in the Flash plugin once the Quartz version is non-beta, we should close this out.

Latest trunk + Flash 9.0 r124 = WFM.
