There was a report from Adobe saying there was an issue with youtube videos shortly after Lion's release.

scrolling up and down in general is kind of laggy too, i doubt my computer is too slow to run Lion though...

Hmm, I also have the problem to play avi and mkv videos on Lion, and after long time explore and tried many advice, at last VLC still can't play well, even followed the advice that from apple discussions, to delete the old Xvid codec lying in MacintoshHD/Library/QuickTime folder and reloaded the divx video in QT, got video without sound...
And tried uninstall DivX and keep Perian, seems work, but in the third min the video and audio turned not synchronous...
Now only one answer I'm getting is to use the ifunia video converter.
Life is like music. It must be composed by ear, feeling and instinct, not by rule.
