There has been quite some problems with pepperflash 11.7.700.203 in chrome lately, specifically with youtube. It has been stuttering a lot and made it impossible to watch anything.
Managed to fix this with a workaround.
Here's the solution:
First, go to "chrome://plugins/" in your browser. Locate pepperflash and disable it. Next look for a folder where other plugins are located where you can put your new plugin. I'm using /home/user/.mozilla/plugins/.
Next go to Adobe Flash official webpage at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and download the latest .tar.gz package with the plugin. I'm using version 11.2.202.285. After downloading it, head to it's folder in the terminal, extract it:
tar -zxvf packagename.tar.gz
..and you will get a lot of files and folders you don't need, except libflashplayer.so. Copy this file to the directory you chose earlier.
Restart chrome, check in "chrome://plugins/" again that the new plugin is loaded, and you should be fine!
