Problem with Arabic text with flash player 10 32bit under linux platforms

Arabic encoding characters do not show correct in the right form at all linux distributions .
note: with windows platforms, it shows arabic characters correctly.
this video contains captions and subtitles, in the attachement two snapshots,
First, show the arabic sentences in the right form with "swfdec mozilla" plugins.
The other, show the arabic words with "adobe flash player 32bit" plugins,
for example: Arabic font enconding cp-1256
the character ب
in the beginning of the word " بـ ".
in the middle " ـبـ "
at the end "ـب"
isolated character "not in word "ب"
the word
كتب in the right form
begin from right with " كـ "
with adobe flash player
ب ت ك
it shows from left to right and use only isolated characters.
I report to adobe and they response
Hi Ghost,
Since you do not have a 64 bit machine please proceed to reinstall the
32 bit edition.
For the current release version of Flash player 10, it does support
Right to left, But you can’t use a text field on stage and have it
work. When authoring the content in Flash cs4, you would have to use
the Flash text engine. more information on that can be found here:

I too am having this problem. On all of my linux distributions, including Ubuntu 8.04, 8.10, knoppix 5,1, fedora 8,9,10 flashplayer 10 is broken in the same way. It reports that it cannot find webcam, and the settings dialog refuses to recognize mouse clicks. I've poked around the web quite a bit and have not yet found a solution. I saw the problem mentioned on an adobe bug reporting site and their response was to close the issue saying it wasn't repeatable on their system. I tried to re-open it and my post was deleted without comment (I may have posted incorrectly or something)
Looking here and elsewhere I see that the problem is very common and I don't see any posted bug-fixes, or even acknowledgement that a bug exists. Has adobe lost interest in being cross-platform compatible?

Problem with displaying text in flash player

I have flash player 10.2.152.26 and opera 11.01 installed.
The problem is that text in flash is diplayed in an awful way like this:
http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6918/alljo.png
And when i choose "settings" the window appears, but it doesn't react when I click on it.
Can anyone help, please?

Thanks for answering
So you have IE8 and the hardware acceleration was able to be UNchecked and FP(Flash Player) is working properly with IE.
In IE flash works fine with any settings.
When I unchecked "Hardware acceleration" checbox in IE it also became unchecked in opera, but nothing changed in opera's behavior.
When you don't use the Aero it's displayed correctly but the settings do not work. What settings are you referring to?
It's about flash settings in Opera
With aero: http://img443.imageshack.us/i/settingsh.png/
Without aero: http://img816.imageshack.us/i/settingswoaero.png/
In both cases the settings dialog is displayed like in the screenshots above, but when I click on checkbox/tabs/'close' button in it nothing happens. I can't change any settings or close it (dialog disappers only after reloading page)
Just to sum up everything mentioned above:
- In IE flash works fine regardless of any settings
- In Opera text is displayed wrong when using windows aero, and without aero theme it's displayed correct
- I didn't manage to make settings dialog work in Opera
- When I change some flash settings in IE, they are also changed in Opera
Now Flash Player works thru the browser, do you have perhaps have an addon that is conflicting? What Anti-Virus do you have Installed? Any addons of that?
I have 7 extensions installed in Opera, I've disabled all of them, but nothing changed.
I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, disabling it also gives nothing.

Problem in displaying Arabic text in flash cs3/cs4

Hi All, I'm creating one website. I have to display dynamic xmlize arabic text in flash. I have done it using flash cs3/AS3. But problem is that when text displays in flash it is not rendering as expected. Some gaps comes in the characters. But when I open my xml in browser, arabic text displays correct.
Is there any way to do it in flash cs3 or Flash cs4 using player 9? It would be really great if anyone can give me solution on this. Thanks
Chandrakant

You have to do it yourself - I don't have a ready solution. Just look into documentation how StyleSheets are used and see what properties work best for you:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.html
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/StyleSheet.html
Also, with embedded fonts you need to play with TextFormat settings and AntiAliasType
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/AntiAliasType.html
In addition, on my machine even if I don't emebed fonts - Arabic works in Arial, TImes and others.

Arabic text with accents shown broken

Hello,
In FireFox 4, Arabic text with accents (ًٌٍَُِّْ) is shown broken. It was displayed correctly in previous versions and also in IE.
Consider please the following examples, and compare between the words with and without accents. You can see the gaps between the letters:
دعم فَيَرفُكس
مُتَصَفِّحُ فَيَرفُكس هُو مُتَصفح الانترنت الأفضل فى العالم
The problem is not site specific. It is common to all sites with Arabic texts. I'll just provide an example URL. Compare the display of FF4 with previous versions or with IE.
Thank you.. You are the best !! :)

BTW, disabling/enabling the option "allow web pages to use their own fonts" had no effect. The broken text problem is the same in either case.

RTMP Netstream NOT working with latest version of flash Player

Let me preface this by saying: This is definitely a bug either with latest Adobe Flash Player or the streaming Media Server (in this case Real Helix):
In the latest version of the Flash player (10.1.82.76) Code that worked previously in version 10.1.53.64 does not work now. This is basic code to connect to an RTMP server (Real Helix) using Netstream class. NOW the video does not even display and there is no error message . THIS ONLY OCCURS in a BROWSER . Also I am using swfobject to display the flash and I tried with latest version and the old 1.4.1 version.
Adobe please look into this, Is this possibly a problem with Real Helix OR Flash Player itself......I can't imagine nobody has come across this before?!
private function init():void
            video = new Video();
            NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
            nc = new NetConnection();
            nc.client = this;
            nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
            nc.connect(rtmppath);
        //---BEGIN: Video Handling methods ----------------------------------------------
        private function onBWDone():void
        private function checkConnect (e:NetStatusEvent):void
            trace(flag_Running);
            if(flag_Running)
              return;
            var msg:Boolean=false;
            msg = (e.info.code=="NetConnection.Connect.Success");
            flag_Running=true;
                if (msg)
                    ns = new NetStream(nc);
                    ns.client = {onMetaData:ns_onMetaData, onCuePoint:ns_onCuePoint,onPlayStatus:ns_onPlayStatus,netStatus:onNetStatus};
                    ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
                    ns.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
                    ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,onNetstreamStatus); //only handles errors right now
                    //vidDisplay is a Video object in the library (Video - actionscript controlled)
                    vidDisplay.attachNetStream(ns);
                    // set the smoothing value from the constant
                    vidDisplay.smoothing = SMOOTHING;
                    setVolume(DEFAULT_VOLUME);
                    bolLoaded = true;
                    trace("NetConnection.Connect.Success");
                    cur_state = STATE_CONNECTED;
                    callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_VID_INIT_DONE,null);
                else
                    trace("Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);
                    callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_ERROR,null,"Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);

This is confirmed as a REAL HELIX Bug. Here is what I recevied from them:
This has already been fixed (not yet released). For existing servers to work with the
latest Flash player (10.1.82.76) you need to add the following to the top level of
your server config file
<List Name="RTMP">
   <List Name="Scheme2">
       <List Name="Versions">
           <Var v1="0x80000702"/>
       </List>
   </List>
</List>
I put this in the config file and restarted the server, and it worked!

Flash animation working in program preview, not in browser with up to date Flash Player.

After hitting next on this animation you can see there appears to be blank areas on the animation. If you mouse over them you will see buttons appear which is their "over state." When I publish the animation and preview it in Adobe Flash CS5.5 all the buttons are visible and work correctly. It is only in the brower (chrome, firefox, safari) with up to date Flash Player that is is not working. This is happening in a number of animations I created originally in CS4 last year, and am updating them as CS5.5 using AS3.
My application is up to date.

Are you loading those images externally?
Can you share an example of you loading an external file if so? It should look similar to this:
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onErrorHandler);
myLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
function onErrorHandler(e:IOErrorEvent):void
     // put some visual code here to tell yourself you have a load error
     // otherwise you'll never know
     trace(e);
function onCompleteHandler(e:Event):void
     // add to display list if you wish (a Loader is a displayobject), or add it to a sprite and name it, etc
     addChild(e.target);
If you're not checking for errors then you won't know it's not loading things properly. That is of course if you're loading external assets.

Why ship Google Chrome with security updates to Flash Player

I do not want it, I will not install it, it wastes time downloading. Stop sending it to me.

I remember the European Competition authorities made a judgement against Microsoft for only shipping Internet Explorer with Windows. How can you only ship the Chrome option with Adobe updates, why do you not give users the option to download other browsers?

Invisible Text in Flash Player on Financial Website

Just spent an hour on the phone with one of my financial sites on which I can no longer see some important text. They tried everything, none of which worked, and concluded it must be incompatibility of the adobe flash and Snow Leopard. It started right after installation of Snow Leopard. I've since learned that others have this problem too. Any suggestions on how to get this fixed? What can I do?

It's great that you've isolated the problem to the User account.
You can usually just drag a plist or sub-folder of preferences to your desktop and an application will replace the missing preference file automatically as needed. You can delete the files when the problem is fixed.
In your User folder which is often represented in a path as a ~ character there are several Flash related locations.
~/Library/Caches/Adobe/Flash Player
You can dump the cache to see if it's causing a problem.
~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player
Here, there are several folders like #Security, #Shared Objects, etc. You can move these folders to the desktop and see if the problem goes away.
~/Library/Preferences/Flash 10 MRU
Move the file to the desktop.
If you move the folders to your desktop, you could put them back if desired.
If you remove all of these references from your machine and have to reinstall flash, that's a good thing, but not a usual occurrence for programs like this.
You might have other preference files that I don't have on my system, and I might have older files laying around in mine because they haven't been noticed as a problem. Typically these files are so small, that they don't matter to anyone.
Hope this helps. Preference files can be challenging to isolate.

Problem closing popup window in flash player 10.0.32.18

Hello,
I'm new to the forum so please bear with me. I posted this in the actual "Flash" forum yesterday but I realized afterward that the ActionScript forum would be a better place to post the question (sorry about that). I'm a web designer but I don't use a lot of Flash. I'm sure this will change as time goes on. For now, I'm still using an old version of Flash MX on my Mac - Flash MX version 6. But I don't think this has anything to do with the problem I'm experiencing. I designed a flash animation for my wife's website back in 2004 and it has always worked perfectly up until installing the most recent Flash Player 10.0.32.18 just a few days ago. Here's the problem:
On the main page of my wife's website, we have a special link called "view presentation". When you click on that link, a smaller, new browser window pops up in front of the main page (the window sits "over top" of the main page - a typical pop up window). Inside of this new pop up window is the flash animation (the actual swf file). Inside of the HTML code for the pop up window, I have coded the following javascript:
function closeWin() {
   if (document.images) {
     self.close();
The above script, closeWin() is called from a button called "Quit" that the user clicks on in the actual swf file inside of the pop up window. Here is the code from the swf ActionScript:
on (release) {
    stopAllSounds();
    getURL("javascript:closeWin();", "_self");
This has always worked perfectly right up to Flash Player version 10.0.22.87 - the window closed as soon as the user clicked on the button. But now, with the most recent Flash Player 10.0.32.18 installed, it no longer works. The pop up window no longer closes.
Obviously, something has changed in this latest version of Flash Player 10.0.32.18 which is preventing this from working. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much,
Mike

Well, thanks to your help - I got it solved. It's not the Security Update, it's not javascript, it's not the difference in flash versions, it's nothing in the ActionScript itself or any of the other things I/we thought it might have been. I looked really closely at your HTML code and compared it to mine and changed it so that it was almost exactly the same as what you had coded - here's what made the difference (I've bolded the changes so you can see the differences):
old code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" id="tour" width="600" height="450" align="top">
<param name="movie" value ="tour.swf">
<param name="quality" value ="high">
<param name="bgcolor" value ="#ffffff">
<embed name="tour" src="tour.swf" quality ="high" bgcolor ="#ffffff" width ="600" height ="450" align ="top" type ="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" swLiveconnect="true"></embed >
</object >
new code:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="600" height="450" id="tour" align="top">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain">
<param name="movie" value="tour.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff">
<embed src="tour.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="600" height="450" name="tour" align="top" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>
</object>
Now works perfectly - the pop up window closes every time (I also took out swLiveconnect="true" - not sure where that ever came from).
I'm not exactly sure how the above changes could make it work but they did so I am thrilled that you were kind enough to help out. If you have any ideas as to what actually did make the difference, please let me know as I am very curious. Maybe is was the "codebase" line? Seems like adding in the "allowScriptAccess" also had some sort of effect.
Thanks again,
Mike

Problems installing or running Adobe Flash Player for safari

problems installing or running Adobe® Flash® Player for safari when trying to install Adobe Flash Player.pkg it asks to quit Dash Board client then brings up Exclamation mark up and quits install ??????

Adobe Flash is pretty much a 32-bit application. You may be able to fix the problem by going into your Applications folder, and right-clicking on Safari. There is a check box that will allow you to run Safari in 32-bit mode. Try that and see if Flash works in Safari.
I have retired my iMac, and have an HP now, but a friend helped me with the same problem when I upgraded to Snow Leopard. My PC seems to have just one 64-bit browser, that being Internet Explorer. I am using IE9 Beta in 64-bit, and the Beta for Flash "Square" in 64-bit seems to work fine. See link below:
