Have you tried using a different browser?
Or updating your flash?

right mouse click -> settings -> enable hardware acceleration.

try with and without

What about other video streaming sites like iPlayer?

Same. Flash player's hardware acceleration is iffy. Try updating to the latest graphics card drivers. Although tbh, I never had problems myself (HD5850). It's possible there is a settings in the ATI control panel that is a bit screwy, but I never mess with them.
