Problem with Flash in a Hide/Show Div Tag

What is the best way to handle Flash files on an HTML page
within a <div> tag you hide and show (via javascript). It
seems to reload when you hide and then show the <div> tag
when using display: block.
Positioning instead (move offscreen)?
Visibility?
Other?

I would say off-screen is going to give you the best
cross-platform performance. I've found visibility show/hide
prevents the swf from working in IE while hidden much like you
alluded to. Of course in mozilla browsers hide doesn't behave the
same way.

  • Problems with flash Player

    So I'm having a problem with flash player, and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing, or might be able to help.
    - Upgraded 2 computers to snow leopard, macbook pro laptop, and mac Pro tower (intel proc).
    - Laptop has no problems, everything renders fine, and without any difficulty.
    - Mac Pro doesn't display any dynamic data, text fields show up blank, some flash player controls don't work, brightcove player won't load completely... things are just not working right.
    - Main browser is Safari, but same problem exists in Camino, Firefox, etc...
    - I've had Safari Stand installed, but have since removed it.
    - I've removed GROWL notifications completely
    - I've got debug and developer menus turned on (but have that with the laptop also.)
    Please see the screenshot attached. This graph should have text data on it showing the x/y axis, the key, as well as data when you mouse over each block, but doesn't show anything.
    The second screen shot shows a brightcove player from our website... There should have full controls at the bottom, and nothing shows up. If I right-click, and go to 'view full screen', I can't then get out of full screen by clicking escape key on the keyboard, I have to use any player controls, or right-click again, and hit 'exit full screen'.
    Anyone have any suggestions? It's something to do with my computer, rather than snow leopard, because flash works fine on my laptop, but not on the desktop. Any help is really appreciated !

    Hi!
    I reached your post because I was having the exact same issues as you and I found a fix that worked for me! The problem is a font issue: I logged in with the guest account that had no users font installed and flash was working fine, so I logged back into my account and moved all the fonts in my 'User>Library>Fonts' folder in a folder in the desktop. Then I closed and reopened Safari and Flash was working!
    In the end the problem was with a version of Arial that I had in my users' font folder: I deleted just that, put my users' font back in the folder and the problem disappeared.
    I hope it hepls!
    best

  • Problems with Flash Video

    OK - I have had intermittent problems with Flash video, basically it gets choppy, usually after about 20 minutes - half an hour of watching - recently this problem has gotten worse - coinciding with a recent system update perhaps? - it's more or less anytime I stream something, and it happens on all browsers, even when the movie has clearly downloaded and is buffered way in advance of the playhead.
    On 2 occasions recently leaving the movie to play just to see what happens has led to a kernel panic.
    I've heard alot about Flash video generally being a resource hog and not playing ball sometimes - is there a way to solve this issue? Things I have tried - reset sound to 16 bit 44.1 khz in audio/midi manager; fixed permissions; run Tech Tool - everything seems to be fine hardware wise - I think there are some incompatible driver issues that are meesing up RAM usage but have no idea what or how to solve this... Any ideas anybody?
    Thanks.

    If, as you show, you are running 10.5.2, that is out of date. You need to install the 10.5.8 combo updater.
    It is also possible that your FlashPlayer is out of date.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Problems with Flash video playback

    I'm having a problem with Flash video playback, hoping
    someone here can help.
    I have several movies which I have converted to .flv using
    the Flash authoring tool. I have then created an .swf for each
    movie, embedding the .flv along with the playback component,
    playback controls, etc.
    I can open these .swfs using Flash Player and everything
    displays and plays as expected. However, when I embed the .swf into
    a web page and open it using a browser, the playback controls don't
    show up, and the movie will only play if it has been encoded to
    autoplay. I am on an Intel Mac, using the latest Flash Player
    plug-in, and am having this problem in both Firefox 2.0.0.11 and in
    Safari 2.0.4.
    I'm guessing that the problem lies in how I have encoded the
    .swfs into the web page? Hoping someone has a solution, or at least
    a good suggestion!
    thanks,
    - sounddevisor

    Yes, that is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
    Just to clarify for anyone else who stumbles across this -
    the extra .swf files (which contain the skin for the player) need
    to be in the same directory as the .html doc which is displaying
    the video .swf. Hope that helps someone else!

  • I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

    Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
    If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
    I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

    Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
    I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
    Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

  • Ongoing problems with Flash in Firefox 8

    I am still having problems with Flash player since upgrading to Firfox 8 - see previous posts.
    Symptoms:
    When I try to access any flash containing page, the flash content does not load or play - the area it should be is blank or shrunk out - not even a token jpeg.
    What I have tried:
    Checked Flash is installed and enabled and up to date - all OK.
    Tried re-installing Flash anyway - no effect.
    Tried uninstalling flash and re-installing - this fixes the problem temporarily, but as soon as I shut down and restart, the problem returns.
    Tried disabling other add ons - makes no difference. Only addon in this area is Freecorder toolbar.
    Tried updating settings in Windows Firewall to ensure Firefox is allowed - no change.
    Ensured my anti-virus/spyware program (PC Tools Anti-virus) is not blocking any of the websites - nothing there.
    Checked situation in IE (Yuck!) - works fine there.

    No response to this, and problem has not gone away. Looks like I am going to have to change browser....

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • I'm having problems with Flash Videos (Youtube and ESPN)

    I have been having this problem for the last couple of days now and it is really annoying. Whenever I watch a flash video like on youtube or espn my computer freezes up and the audio will make a loud buzzing sound. I have attached a video with the post so you can see what happens. I don't have problems with anything else except this. I also get this error no matter what browser I use. I have system restored my PC as far as I can go, and I've ran a ton of scans and driver update checks and nothing seems to work.

    merci a tous pour les nombreuses réponse. j'ai dû mal a les lire vue que je ne lit que le français. je vous remercié encore une fois amicalement. Blanchette 2.

  • Problems with Flash 10.1 crashing

    There are numerous reports on these forums of problems between Firefox and Flash with videos failing to play on certain websites but not others. I have found that by reverting to Firefox 3.6.3 these problems go away. This suggests that the problem is with the plugin-container.exe process which handles Flash at vsns 3.6.4 and above. Has anyone else had the same experience? Any Firefox developers care to comment?
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://
    == User Agent ==
    Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 6.0; U; en) Presto/2.6.30 Version/10.60

    I have not had problems with Flash or plugin-container in versions 3.6.4 and 3.6.6. You can disable plugin-container. After disabling, restart Firefox (because plugin-container, once loaded, is unfortunately left running until Firefox is closed) and see if your situation has been corrected. See the instructions to disable plugin-container here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/706123?#threadId706192
