That did not work for me; got a frozen screen upon clicking that option.
Problem solved with a tip from 
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=How+to+fix+the+blue+tint+on+YouTube+videos&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCsQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.my-guides.net%2Fen%2Fguides%2Flinux%2F324-how-to-fix-the-blue-tint-on-youtube-videos-problem-flash-and-nvidia&ei=B5mdT5znOJOo8gTxoYniDg&usg=AFQjCNHVwAHJK-lFiV4vrtj7XwJmxPL_XQ
Create a folder "adobe" in "etc";
Create a txt file called "mms.cfg";
Paste these two lies in it...
   EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1
   OverrideGPUValidation=true
Save and close it;
Close and re-open browser.
That worked for me!!!
:)
