To my knowledge (and from my tests) Flash Player 11.1 doesn't support Stage 
Video HW acceleration on Linux, 11.2 is the first version which supports 
hardware decoding through VDPAU (and therefore causes this bug).
By downgrading to Flash Player 11.1 you probably won't get HW accelerated 
video, but you will definitely get known security vulnerability, see 
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb12-07.html – while the 
first one seems to be WIndows only, the second one (CVE-2012-0773) allows an 
arbitrary code execution on all platforms. But hey, it's your call.

If you still want to downgrade, Flash Player 10.3 is maintained, see
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-
versions.html#main_Archived_versions – it is possible this version also
supports EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode without crashing so often (I've not
tested it).

Again, currently the easiest/most stable/safest way to fix colours is to 
disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player Display settings: 
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
If the Settings window doesn't respond to clicks, switch to Unity 2D, uncheck 
the box and switch back to standard Unity.
