    The latest Flash Player 16 beta builds are now available. Beta builds can be downloaded from labs.adobe.com.  Today's build brings the Flash Player beta up to date with the Janurary 13th official release.
    New Features for Flash Player 16:
    Stage3D - Standard Constrained Profile
    In version 14 of the Runtime we added the new Standard profile to desktop systems.  In Version 15 we expanded that to mobile devices in AIR.  In Flash Player 16 we've added a new Standard Constrained profile.  Like Baseline Constrained, Standard Constrained targets older and lower powered GPUs on both desktop and mobile devices.  While Standard profile reached ~21% of iOS devices, Standard Constrained can now reach more than 85%.  Developers can access this by using the new STANDARD_CONSTRAINED constant in Context3DProfile.  The chart below breaks down the differences between the different profiles that are available.
    PPAPI Installers for Windows and Mac
    We're pleased to announce that we now have PPAPI installers for the standard version of Flash Player for Windows and Mac.  Previously, this version of the Player was available only as an integrated component of Google Chrome.  With the introduction of these installers, Flash Player is now available for all Chromium based browsers using the PPAPI interface.  Please note that these installers are not required nor used by Google Chrome.  Chrome will continue to include Flash Player without requiring any additional installation. Both the standard and content debugging versions of the PPAPI installers are now available on http://labs.adobe.com.
    FSCommand change for Internet Explorer - Extended Beta
    This feature changes Flash Player’s handling of the FSCommand for Internet Explorer (IE) version 11 running in Edge mode. Currently, the method of invoking Flash Player FSCommand differs between that for IE and that for non-IE browsers. For IE, Flash Player fires a registered event handler for FSCommand; For non-IE browsers, a corresponding JavaScript callback function is invoked. This change will directly invoke the JavaScript callback function for FSCommand With IE 11, as is done for non-IE browsers, rather than use the event handling method.

    Each Flash Player update includes important security updates necessary to protect you from malware on the web.  You should always run the latest Flash Player.  Reverting is a terrible idea.
    Are you also experiencing this issue in either Internet Explorer or Google Chrome?  They all have significantly different versions of Flash Player.

  • 4/28/2015 - Beta - Flash Player 18.0.0.107

    The latest Flash Player 18 beta builds are now available.  Beta builds can be downloaded from labs.adobe.com.
    New Features for Flash Player 18:
    Improve Flash Player Install Process
    We have had consistent feedback from our customers that they prefer not to shut down their browser(s) to simply install Flash Player. This feature attempts to remove this requirement whenever possible. On the Macintosh, the installer will no longer display a dialog to shutdown the currently running browsers or applications that are using Flash Player. In most cases, the same is true on Windows. However, on Windows, if a user is performing a "re-install" of the same version of Flash Player, the installer will require that the application using Flash Player be closed so that files can be unlocked and overwritten.
    Once the installation is completed, the user is notified that the browser may need to be restarted to use the newly installed version. This restart requirement is dependent on the browser. For example, Mozilla Firefox does not require a restart. Simply refreshing the webpage or opening a new tab in Firefox will detect and use the new Flash Player version. Other browser may end up using the previously installed version of Flash Player until a restart is performed. We will continue to work with the browser vendors to remove this restriction and reduce restarts as much as possible.
    Audio APIs added to Flash Player NPAPI
    We have added the ability for NPAPI compatible browsers and applications to query the player and detect if audio is currently being played and the ability to mute. This new feature will allow applications to alert the user if audio is being played and give them the ability to mute, even if the Flash content does not.
    Stage3D - Standard Extended Profile for Desktop
    In version 17 Standard Extended Profile was introduced on iOS and Android devices which support GLES3. In version 18, Standard Extended Profile support is added for Flash Player and AIR Desktop. It is represented by a new constant ‘STANDARD_EXTENDED’ in the Context3DProfile class. This constant can be used in the requestContext3D and requestContext3DMatchingProfiles methods of Stage3D. The “standardExtended” profile can only be accessed if the swf version is 28 or more.
    Browser Zoom Factor for PPAPI Plugin and non-Win 8x ActiveX
    We've introduced a feature that proposes scaling of Flash content in the web browser in response to web page zoom factor change. This feature was already present for Internet Explorer on Window 8.x.  In Flash Player 18, it now supports PPAPI (Opera and Chrome) and Internet Explorer on Windows 7 and below.
    For complete details, please see our Release Notes.

    While I'm not going to go through the re-installation again to test this, can you go to this page
    Adobe - Test Adobe Shockwave and Flash Players
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/
    to make sure you didn't just move the old / uninstalled versions back into place?  I used the installer and it put things where they were to go.
    I was having lots and lots of problems (still having a few) and did the following:
    1) ran shareware app: iDelete QT and Flash Caches
    2) ran Adobe's uninstaller
    3) repaired permissions
    4) ran the installer for latest version
    5) ran the permission repair again
    largely seems to work now.
    I never needed to dig in the trash to get out files, and most people aren't reporting that which is why I ask that you verify the version...
    and, I had run the installer several times trying to diagnose/get around problems.
    Either way, best of luck and thanks for sharing what worked for you

  • 11/6/2014 - Beta - Flash Player 15.0.0.222

    The latest Flash Player 15 beta builds are now available. Beta builds can be downloaded from labs.adobe.com.  Today's build brings the Flash Player beta up to date with next week's official release.
    New Features for Flash Player 15:
    Relaxing Stage3D Render Target Clear
    In previous versions of Stage3D, after switching the render texture through Context3D::setRenderToTexture, you were required to clear it before drawing. In this release, we're removing this limitation and optimizing the use of render textures. This change will allow you to further optimize and reuse depth and stencil buffers between different render textures. 
    For additional information, please see Relaxing Render Target Clear Operation in Stage 3D.
    Improved support for browser zoom levels - Windows 8
    Flash Player now has improved support for browser zoom factors other than 100% on Internet Explorer on Windows 8.x.  Devices, like the Microsoft Surface tablets, default to a zoom level of 150%.  In the past, this could cause problems with Flash Player and some 3D content.  With our new implementation, we can now scale the content and 3D buffers to keep everything aligned.  In addition, Flash Player introduces an option to render to an increased Stage3D back buffer, rather than scaling, on browser zoom to keep the resolution of the rendered content high. This option allows to the stage3D buffer to change in size in synch with the change in the browser zoom factor.  Developers are notified of this change with a new ZOOM_FACTOR_CHANGE event.
    For additional detail, please see the article Improved Resolution of Stage3D Content on Browser Zoom
    Flash Player Fullscreen Orientation Change - Windows
    Flash Player will now detect and appropriately scale your content to fit best in a fullscreen display when your device orientation is changed.  This change is specific to Windows and is implemented across all browsers.  We're focusing on providing the best tablet experience possible.  A resize event will fire when in fullscreen mode and the device orientation changes.  Developers, if your content does not resize, you will need to handle the resize event appropriately. 
    For additional details, please see the Guide for Supporting Screen Orientation with Full-Screen Flash Player Content.
    Hardware video decoding on Chrome (PPAPI) for Windows
    We're pleased to announce that hardware video decoding is now enabled by default for Chrome users on Windows.  This feature will drastically reduce the CPU usage and improve performance on supported videos players.  We're working closely with Google to bring this feature to OS X and will provide additional details when available.
    Automatic software fall back with StageVideo
    Flash Player 15 now supports a Software version of StageVideo that provides an automatic failover to the software version when hardware StageVideo is not available. To leverage this automatic failover, the swf apps need to be compiled for Flash Player 15 and above.
    When the swfs are compiled for Flash Player 15 and above, and when hardware StageVideo is unavailable, the app will get a StageVideoAvailability event as earlier, but instead of being "Unavailable" it will ALWAYS be "available", and the reason will always be "noError". The app will no longer need to implement a Video object failover as the failover is automatic inside flash player. The apps can still choose to use Video object instead of StageVIdeo if needed.
    Hardware StageVideo availability is dependent on a number of factors, including:
    Browser hardware rendering support: If available, all wMode based apps will support hardware StageVideo. If not available, wMode=direct based apps will be the only ones that will support hardware StageVideo, unless there are other exceptions, like the ones mentioned below.
    On Windows:
    IE11: IE has an accelerated pipeline and the FlashPlayer is HW accelerated in all wmode, so StageVideo should always be available. Note that the decision to use the HW accelerate rendering pipeline reside in IE.
    Firefox: There is currently no HW accelerated pipeline available in Firefox on windows and only wMode direct will have StageVideo available all other wMode should generate a unavailable event.
    Chrome: Pepper has HW acceleration in all wMode, but some restrictions apply. For example Chrome will refuse to use HW acceleration on Windows XP and it has its own driver blacklisting mechanism. It is also possible for the user to disable the HW acceleration in the settings panel. Chrome exposes a somewhat useful page to allow one to see the status of its gpu acceleration: chrome://gpu/
    On Mac:
    Safari: All wMode should expose StageVideo
    Firefox: All wModes should expose StageVideo
    Chrome: All wMode should expose StageVideo, with the same limitations as the windows version.
    Driver version: Certain older drivers may not support hardware StageVideo
    User settings: If a user turns off hardware acceleration, then hardware StageVideo will not be available
    Full Screen: Hardware StageVIdeo is always available in Full Screen mode.
    When the hardware StageVideo fails because of browser support, wMode, driver version or user settings, starting with Flash Player 15, SW StageVideo will be used automatically without needing any configuration or code in the app.
    PPAPI Installers for Windows and Mac - Extended Beta
    We're pleased to announce that we now have PPAPI installers for the standard version of Flash Player for Windows and Mac.  Previously, this version of the Player was available only as an integrated component of Google Chrome.  With the introduction of these installers, Flash Player is now available for all Chromium based browsers using the PPAPI interface.  Please note that these installers are not required nor used by Google Chrome.  Chrome will continue to include Flash Player without requiring any additional installation.
    Both the standard and content debugging versions of the PPAPI installers are now available on http://labs.adobe.com.
    New MMS.CFG Flag - EnableInsecureJunctionBehavior
    Flash Player 15 restricted the ability for Flash Player in Internet Explorer to write to paths that traversed Junction files in Windows. This affected some enterprise organizations that relied on redirected user folders that also leveraged Junctions, and we have introduced a new mms.cfg that allows organizations to revert to the insecure behavior as temporary pain relief. We recommend that administrators only use this flag as a short-term workaround.
    This Flag only works in Internet Explorer with Protected Mode disabled.
    To enable this behavior, add the following line to your mms.cfg file:
    EnableInsecureJunctionBehavior = 1
    Testing Focus:
    Hardware Video Decoding is now on by default for Chrome users. If you experience playback or stability problems when watching Flash-based video, please report them to the Beta forums. Including the output of the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag) would be especially helpful.

    Thanks Clark for addressing my problem.
    I was out of town, just returned today. Hence some delay in my reply.
    The application being at an enterprise level and huge, I am not sure how to share a simplified source.
    The complexity of the elements getting created in the application may also cause error in rendering at that zoom level.
    Let me find out some way out of how to share more details on this.
    I will be able to share the swf link with you after discussing the confidentiality terms with the concerned person.
    I appreciate your patience.
    Have a good day!

    PPAPI Content Debugger - EXTENDED BETA
    We're pleased to announce the immediate availability of the PPAPI Flash Player content debugger. For the first time, Flash developers will be able to debug their content using the PPAPI interface on Chromium based browsers. Please note that at this time, only the Chrome Canary build (M36 or higher) has support for the PPAPI debugger. To use this plugin in Google Chrome, please install the debugger using our stand alone installer available from labs.adobe.com and navigate to the chrome://plugins/ page. On the Chrome Plug-ins page, expand the plugin details and enable the debug version (noted in the Plug-in description) of the Shockwave Flash.When configuring remote debugging, please navigate to Flash content and select the "Debugger" menu item from the Flash Player context menu.
    Once set, these settings will take effect when the page is refreshed or the next time Flash content is loaded. For additional configuration options, please visit our Flash Player debug help page. Content displayed using SwfObject may encounter problems with the version number check. We are aware of this issue (see known issues below) and will address this in an upcoming build.
    Anisotropic Filtering
    This new texture sampling filter can enhance the image quality of textures on surfaces that are at oblique viewing angles. There are two ways to enable this feature:
    In AGAL, set one of the values – "anisotropic2x", "anisotropic4x", "anisotropic8x", or "anisotropic16x" to the filter option in the sampling instructions. Or call Context3D::setSamplerStateAt with the 3rd parameter "filter" being one of the values defined in Context3DTextureFilter - "ANISOTROPIC2X", "ANISOTROPIC4X", "ANISOTROPIC8X", or "ANISOTROPIC16X"
    New Stage3D "Standard" Profile
    Developers can now request this high level profile when creating Context3D. Three new features are available in this profile:
    Multiple render target allows to you to draw geometry to multiple outputs (up to 4) during one drawing
    Floating point texture allows you to create Texture, RectangleTexture and CubeTuxture with the RGBA16F folder.

    Ive also been having this problem/bug in Firefox 2 and 3 for
    a while.
    While watching a Youtube video or any other video site, the
    video will suddenly stop and freeze Firefox after a total of
    watching about 15 min of content.
    However, i have not been able to use Internet Explorer
    sometimes any .exe after this bug happens.
    along with not just videos but other sites using flash player
    related material. The only way to repair my computer temporarily is
    to restart my computer and restrain myself from using flash player.
    Also, I attempted to resolve the issue by downgrading my
    player to 9,0,45,0 only to fail.

  • 3/1182014 - Beta - Flash Player 13.0.0.168

    Flash Player Beta Channel Update
    The latest Flash Player 13 builds are now available.  You can download Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta.
    New and Updated Features:
    Enhanced Supplementary Character Support for TextField 
    Characters from the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) with Unicode code points between U+10000 and U+10FFFF now work correctly in TextField controls.  This change greatly enlarges the code point range we support,  and now includes characters like emoticons and complex CCJK characters. 
    Relocated Full Screen Video Warning to Top of Screen
    We've made a small tweak to the "Press Esc to exit full screen mode" warning that is displayed for full screen video.  We've received a lot of feedback from developers because the dialog obscures content, and we wanted to make a change that both satisfies security concerns and customer viewing enjoyment.  To reduce the impact of the dialog on the on-screen content, we've moved the dialog to the top of the screen. 
    New Stage3D Texture Wrapping Modes
    Developers can currently set the wrapping mode of a texture to either clamp or repeat.  Using the repeat option will repeat the texture on both the U and V axis.  However, in some use cases, you may only want to repeat the texture on either the u or v axis. 
    This is now possible with the introduction of two new parameters:
    REPEAT_U_CLAMP_V and CLAMP_U_REPEAT_V
    Stage3D Anti-Aliasing for Texture Rendering
    Anti-Aliasing is a useful for improving perceived image quality.  Hardware based Multisampling Anti-Aliasing (MSAA) is now available on all desktop platforms.  To enable MSAA, set the level from 0 to 4  using the new Context3D, setRenderToTexture() method.
    • 0 = 1 subsample, no antialiasing
    • 1 = 2 subsamples, minimal antialiasing
    • 2 = 4 subsamples, medium  high-quality antialiasing
    • 3 = 8 subsamples,  high-quality antialiasing
    • 4 = 16 subsamples, very high-quality antialiasing
    Testing Guidance: We're looking for feedback on stability and compatibility with existing content on these new features.  Fixed Issues:
    Multiple stability fixes

    ATTENTION MAC CUSTOMERS - Flash Player 13 "Plugin Failure" Workaround

  • 11/11/2014 - Beta - Flash Player 16.0.0.219

    The latest Flash Player 16 beta builds are now available. Beta builds can be downloaded from labs.adobe.com.  Today's build brings the Flash Player beta up to date with this week's official release.
    New Features for Flash Player 16:
    Stage3D - Standard Constrained Profile
    In version 14 of the Runtime we added the new Standard profile to desktop systems.  In Version 15 we expanded that to mobile devices in AIR.  In Flash Player 16 we've added a new Standard Constrained profile.  Like Baseline Constrained, Standard Constrained targets older and lower powered GPUs on both desktop and mobile devices.  While Standard profile reached ~21% of iOS devices, Standard Constrained can now reach more than 85%.  Developers can access this by using the new STANDARD_CONSTRAINED constant in Context3DProfile.  The chart below breaks down the differences between the different profiles that are available.
    PPAPI Installers for Windows and Mac
    We're pleased to announce that we now have PPAPI installers for the standard version of Flash Player for Windows and Mac.  Previously, this version of the Player was available only as an integrated component of Google Chrome.  With the introduction of these installers, Flash Player is now available for all Chromium based browsers using the PPAPI interface.  Please note that these installers are not required nor used by Google Chrome.  Chrome will continue to include Flash Player without requiring any additional installation.
    Both the standard and content debugging versions of the PPAPI installers are now available on http://labs.adobe.com.
    Testing Focus:
    Hardware Video Decoding is now on by default for Chrome users. If you experience playback or stability problems when watching Flash-based video, please report them to the Beta forums. Including the output of the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag) would be especially helpful.

    FSCommand change for Internet Explorer - Extended Beta
    This feature changes Flash Player’s handling of the FSCommand for Internet Explorer (IE) version 11 running in Edge mode. Currently, the method of invoking Flash Player FSCommand differs between that for IE and that for non-IE browsers. For IE, Flash Player fires a registered event handler for FSCommand; For non-IE browsers, a corresponding JavaScript callback function is invoked. This change will directly invoke the JavaScript callback function for FSCommand With IE 11, as is done for non-IE browsers, rather than use the event handling method.
    Testing Focus:
    If your website utilizes FSCommand and you encounter problems with Internet Explorer, please let us know ASAP on our beta forums.

Currently, the method of invoking Flash Player FSCommand differs between that for IE and that for non-IE browsers. For IE, Flash Player fires a registered event handler for FSCommand; For non-IE browsers, a corresponding JavaScript callback function is invoked. This change will directly invoke the JavaScript callback function for FSCommand With IE 11, as is done for non-IE browsers, rather than use the event handling method.
    Testing Focus:
    If your website utilizes FSCommand and you encounter problems with Internet Explorer, please let us know ASAP on our beta forums.

  • 1/28/2014 - Beta - Flash Player 13.0.0.80

    Flash Player Beta Channel Update
    The latest Flash Player 13 builds are now available.  You can download Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta.
    New and Updated Features:
    Supplementary Characters Enhancement Support for TextField
    This is a desktop enhancement for supporting surrogate pairs in the TextField control.  Now, characters out of the Basic Multilingual Plane(BMP) with Unicode code points between U+10000 and U+10FFFF will work correctly in the TextField control.  It greatly enlarges the code point range we support and includes characters like emotion symbols (emoticons) and complex CCJK characters.  This feature has been under an extended beta period.  We anticipate this being included into the release version of the Runtime 13 release.
    Full Screen video message tweak
    We've made a small tweak to the "Press Esc to exit full screen mode." message that's seen on full screen video.  We've heard for sometime that this message obscures content and we wanted to make a change that both satisfies security concerns and customer viewing enjoyment.  To help, we've simply moved the message towards the top of the screen from it's original centered position.
    Testing Guidance: 
    This release focuses on enhanced premium video capabilities and new platform support.  We're looking for feedback on stability and compatibility with existing content on these new platforms.  
    Fixed Issues:
    3058752: Move 'Press ESC to exit full screen' to the top
    Note, this currently only works for hardware accelerated video (e.g. YouTube)
