Hello,
I was getting the very same anomaly, (a diagonal, white on top/grey on
bottom that flashed color when playing), and I just stumbled upon a
quick fix:
1. Right-click in the standard youtube video window (non-full
screen).
2. Choose 'Settings...' from the Flash Player's pop-up menu.
3. Uncheck the 'Enable Hardware Acceleration'
4. Click 'Close'.
Full-screen should now work, or at least it did for me. Some kind of
Flash incompatibility with latest Firefox build, it would seem. I am
running vista, so maybe that has something to do with it, as well.
Good luck!
Hope this helps.
I did as suggested above, and it started working fine.

Thank you SO much! I like to watch YouTube videos on fullscreen, but it would always short out, and that was so annoying. Now it works!
Hi Vikram,
Am namita's roomie.I got my new laptop today and was facing exactly the same issue. I remembered the issue faced by namita and which got fixed by you.
I was wondering if i should call her (as she left to India)to ask about the fix.. i just googled and was quite astonished to see the same issue posted here..
