Hi guys,i've been getting problems with video legging on some streams like Espn3 on Ubuntu 14.04lts Amd 64bit,special on FireFox28, and Chrome is ok,then i installed Xubuntu 14.04 32Bit and now don't have none of those issues.

My question is Ubuntu 14.04 AMD 64bit instead of Ubuntu or xubuntu Intel 32bit might it be the cause of these issues?, since my machine is

Lenovo Intel core(tm) I5 2400 CPU 3.10ghz ,3.8Gib Mem
It has Intel integrated HD 2000 but i've got and run an ATI AMD 6450 Video Card with fglrx video drivers

I Mostly use PC to stream live TV.

Can someone tell me if i'm running the wrong Ubuntu ISO?,
should i run Ubuntu 32bit instead of AMD64Bit? thanks

As far as the cpu's arch support it it is recommended to use 64 bit.

try upgrading firefox and install synaptic package manager then search for flashplugin-installer and install/upgrade it.
or you can upgrade whole system using

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Even i am using 64bit Ubuntu 14.04 but never faced any problems streaming.

Thanks: i installed Xubuntu 14.04 lts 64 bit and everything runs smoothly,
i noticed that xubuntu has Firefox 29,and Ubuntu14.04 has Fire fox28, maybe that's why i had those legging issues with video !
