When I watch flash videos in firefox, npviewer.bin goes up to around 15%. If I full-screen, it uses ~90%. When I download the exact same video and watch it in mplayer, it consumes only 6%.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Or, are there any alternatives to using flash to view videos?

Send an e-mail to Adobe to fix flash on Linux.
You can download the video and play flv / mp4 etc. file from your hard drive.
Some videos may be available in html5 format so if you have a browser that supports html5 you don't need flash.
What graphics card do you have and what drivers are you using?

I've been working around the issue for now by downloading the videos and watching them with mplayer, but this is impossible for many live streams.
I have an ATI Radeon 5650, and am using the Catalyst drivers.
Edit: this may be unrelated but I get the following warning when npviewer is running:
