Flash-based videos have always played at inconsistent framerates with significant hitching and jerking, which looked frankly awful and unwatchable for anything more than short clips and I hated it. They did this on every computer I've used too, so it wasn't my setup. I even started a thread about this on TPU some time ago, I was annoyed by it that much. Fraps would show just how bad the framerate was, too.
Now with HTML 5 videos that problem has finally been completely solved and videos play with nice even frame pacing like you'd get on a TV. Bliss. Note that judder/strobing is still visible unless the video is running at 50fps or more, but that's normal and looks the same on a TV.
However, Fraps doesn't show the framerate on HTML 5 and that application doesn't seem to be being developed any more. Does anyone know of a replacement that will show a framerate counter in HTML 5 videos? I've tried googling for it, but all I can find are code snippets to modify the web browser with rather than a little application one can just run.
EDIT: Videos are made at various different framerates, therefore it's handy to know what it is so that the monitor refresh can be set to either match it, or be a multiple of it. This prevents uneven frame pacing due to a rate mismatch.
