Looks like you've got the memory maxed out at 2GB.  With a 1.67GHz single core processor, you may be limited by your hardware to viewing YouTube in a browser. 

Consider installing Minitube using Install/Remove Software.  Menu > System > Install/Remove Software.  Minitube is a YouTube desktop client.  You should be able to view YouTube videos in full screen on your hardware without the jitter you're experiencing with Firefox.

any chance for Netflix ?

You may have to install the Opera browser.  Google Chrome is no longer supported on 32-bit Linux operating systems.

Have you installed Restricted Extras using Lite Software?  Menu > System > Lite Software.

Or have you seen this?

Welcome, man!
Btw about internet browser, I recommended you choose between Mozilla Firefox or Chromium Browser.
