BBC embedded flash player bug

When I view flash video on the BBC news site, I can only see bottom left 1/4 of BBC flash video in Safari.
Opening another tab and then zooming out and in seems to correct it. But anoying though. Anyone else getting this? Might be a retina display issue with flash player.
MacBook Pro Retina, OS 10.8.2, Flash 11.6.602.167.

BBC Embedded Flash Player - Playback Error

When trying to view video content on the BBC Online websites using an embedded player, I receive the following error regardless of what browser/OS I use;
This content doesn't seem to be working. Please try again later.
The Flash Player detailed error information reads;
Error code : 1024
Severity : critical
Description : No further playback is possible following a mediation error
Responsibility : MediaSelector
Could anyone advise a solution to this problem? I have Flash Player 16.0.0.305 installed.

I have this exact same issue. I've recently built 3 computers for friends, this one I'm typing from being the third.
They're all using windows 7 64bit, all have the same hardware and the same basic software. I've built them about a month apart and the first 2 work perfectly. This last one is having nothing but troubles with the exact issues described by the O.P. except my issues are across all browsers.
IE will play all youtube videos WITHOUT FLASH, but I can't play videos from a site like Steam. So when I put in the newest flash player everything goes to pot. Oddly enough though I will be able to play videos on steam, but that's because steam videos only have 1 resolution and don't try to auto-adjust. Youtube starts to cycle through resolutions, restarting each time, before finally just quitting and giving an error message. Again this happens in both FF and IE (I won't put the spyware known as chrome on any machine).
I've tried every fix and solution I can find for 2 days now and I'm at my wit's end. If I see one suggestion for hardware acceleration I'm going to snap! lol. No spyware, no malware, tried hardware acceleration, tried the official uninstall tool, have uninstalled both browsers (diabled IE from the control panel, I realize that it can't be uninstalled per se), have deleted cookies, deleted a specific windows update that someone mentioned was corrupt. I've done the hokey pokey, sacrificed a goat, thrown salt over my shoulder, and eaten a spoonful of sugar.
I'm about ready to try a fresh install. I just cannot figure out why this computer is having so many problems with flash and every other computer I've done in the last year and a half (around 12) has gone smooth as silk.

Hello ak_kanan,
Welcome to the forums.
Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off. Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue.
Let us know how you make out.

Controlling embedded Flash player

Hi All,
I am working on a project whereby the embedded Flash player
(9) needs to be controlled from code.
The following must be accomplished:
There is a list of .swf files stored in a XML file on the web
server. (These .swf files are converted from .mpg movie files.)
The Flash player needs to load the first .swf file.
When it finishes playing the first file it must load the next
one and start playing it automatically.
This process needs to be repeated until the last .swf file is
played.
Whilst playing the .swf file corresponding text must be shown
in a textbox on the same web-page.
When the player finishes playing the last file it must
restart at the first file for the second time
and repeat the whole process the second time but now when it
reaches a certain file for the second time
the player must stop and ask the user a question. The user
will type in his/her answer.
When the answer is correct the Flash player will continue to
play the next file else show the correct answer, mark the question
as wrongly answered and then continue on to the next .swf file.
After the Flash player finishes playing the last file it must
check if any question was wrongly answered.
If so then that .swf file will be shown again and the
question & answer game will be repeated.
When all questions have been answered correctly the user will
be redirect back to the calling page.
The current development environment for the project is C#.NET
2.0
Any help in accomplishing this is very much appreciated.
Best regards,
Arjan

Is it possible to implement a c# application with embedded flash player on WinCE

I have read a great article from Mike Chambers:
Embedding Flash Player in Windows Applications using C#. I
think the solution works fine in PC environment, but I need to
develop a similar C# application with embedded flash player which
runs on WinCE environment(including Pocket PC and SmartPhone). My
questions are:
1. Is it possible to develop the C# application with
embedded flash player on WinCE environment?
2. If question 1 is possible, how can I install the
"Macromedia Flash Player ActiveX control for PPC" into my Visual
Studio .NET on PC environment for development?
3. Can the "Flash Player for Pocket PC Distribution Kit"
help to package the C# application with flash player? Do I have to
use that to package my C# application for WinCE?

> The the question1: should we mapping a another
"Shockwave Flash Object"

com object file ?
You cannot do this natively - .NET does not natively support
AX controls.
You can achieve this with CFCOM
http://www.odysseysoftware.com/products_cfcom.asp
or with OpenCF.NET
http://www.opennetcf.org/ .
OpenCF is free.
Alternatively, it is possible to build your own COM wrapper
using C++ but I
don't know how to achieve this.

Flash Player bug still not fixed yet ?

I had to do a system restore to get back to a working version
of adobe flash player - i put up with no flash for a week, but my
sister thinks I've downloaded a bug onto her machine because there
is obviously something up with this latest version of flash.
it says it's successfully installed, shows the little moving
picture etc. then you go on to myspace or jibjab or anything cool
with flash in it and it doesn't work.
Like I said I've had to use a system restore for the first
time in years as I guessed it was a flash bug pretty quick as I
monitor my updates.
Anyone know if adobe are ackwoledging & fixing this bug ?
- it would be handy to know when it is safe to install the latest
flash player that works.
I'm not a techie so have no intention of poking inside my
machine or it's settings - just wierd how adobe haven't told
website that use the product that services may be affected - so
they can warn customers not to download the latest player until
adobe have fixed the problem!

The same thing happened to me. I've tried so many things -
but nothing works.
Just like you, I download flash, it installs successfully -
it seems - then I go to other sites and it doesn't work anymore.
Now I have to install flash everytime before I open up my browser,
then it works for a website or two - then it fails again.
Is this happening to anyone else?
I have a brand new Mac intel 15 inch laptop - newest
operating software.
I have all my updates, etc,... updated & this is
ridiculous.

Full screen problem, with embedded flash player in a flash player

Hi,
I am having an issue with the flash video player embedded within a flash player movie. The issue is that when my main flash is in Full Screen mode and I try to open that screen where embedded movie player is, when it is opened the inner movie player covers the complete screen, on the other hands it should show that embedded player in normal condition with other background stuffs.
Can anyone guide me what step should I take to avoid this or if it is possible to do this kind of scenario in Full Screen mode or not?
Looking forward to your prompt help.
Best regards,
Irfan

Embedding Flash Player in a wxWidgets app using NPAPI

Hi,
I'm busy working on a wxWidgets control that will be able to host a Flash Player plugin via the NPAPI (Netscape Plugin API). I've written a basic hosting component based on wxPanel, implemented the relevant NPAPI hooks and mechanisms to instantiate, configure and stream SWF data to the plugin. When executing the code under Win32/Win64, everything seems to work fine, but taking the code over to the Mac, things go a little south. I am going to try and give as much information as I can, but can post the project if needs be for further assistance.
I understand that there are operating system specific things I have to do when hosting Netscape plugins under Mac, for example using NP_Port (when using QuickDraw) or NP_CGContext when using Core Graphics, and firing events into the plugin due to the fact that there is no concept of child windows.
However, with all this done, I still have not been able to get the flash player to render itself. I am also seeing some differences in the plugin's behaviour when requesting data from the host via NPN_GetURLNotify().
If anyone has any experience with this kind of work, or has an intimate knowledge of embedding the flash player inside an OS X application, I would be greatly appreciative of any advice/help you can offer.
Thank you.

Hi Carribus,
I'm working on the same thing as you but using Qt and have painting working under Mac/Win. Are you trying to paint in windowed and/or windowless mode? Your problem might be with values of struct NPWindow.clipRect/.x/.y and passing to NPP_SetWindow(). If you are painting in windowed mode clipRect have to match the position of your control.
As for NPN_GetURLNotify() I've not got around to that fully.

Embedding Flash Player on Secure Site

Hello,
I am uploading Flash movies for sales presentations to our
secure intranet server, which is accessed from laptops that all
have Flash Player installed.
The IE security alert that pops up when movies are launched
breaks the flow of the presentation ("This page contains secure and
non-secure items"...). Is it possible to output my flash movie
without the non-secure links to Macromedia's site? I have manually
removed the links for current projects, but this is a pain.
Better yet, is is possible (and legal!) to just embed the
player securely from our own intranet?
Thanks,
Dan

I cannot comment on the legality of publishing the player on
your own site... What I have done is to replace the "http" with
"https" to all links to the codebase that are produced. The links
still work and it gets rid of the message.

Embedding Flash Player 9 on Linux

Hi there. I wish to view some swf movies (i.e. adverts) in my
C/C++ app. Is there any way to embed ONLY a flashplayer inside such
application? I don't need to embed full featured web browser, and
such thing on linux isn't possible in any "portable" way.

I have another question. Does flash player 9 support XEmbed
protocol? If yes how can i launch it as XEmbed client?

Does Adobe sell a web embedded flash player

I need to embed

Time to learn how to use the program then. What about playlists can they be added with Flash CS3?
Using ActionScript, yes, Playlists can be added.
There's a forum for that too when the time comes.

Embeded Flash player not working

I have a browser-based app that we are considering porting to
AIR. The basic functionality of the app uses AJAX to pull down a
list of videos to be displayed, then plays the video when it is
selected. The browser-based app uses Quicktime videos, which I have
come to learn won't work in AIR, so I'm trying to switch to a Flash
player.
My problem is that for the life of me, I cannot get AIR to
play the video. I created the player in Flash, and everything works
great there, as well as in any browser I can find. When I load in
AIR, I see the player, but playback never starts. My
application.xml file is very simple:
quote:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="
http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.0"
version="1.0">
<id>test</id>

and my page is also quite bland:

Hi Conrad!
As you have no doubt already realized, using the Learning
Interaction templates that are available in Flash MX / MX2004 and 8
will not work at all in Presenter content.
The coding methods conflict while playing back within the
Breeze environment and I
think it has to do with the _dropTarget property as part of
the interaction's codebase. The _dropTarget method is NOT supported
in Breeze, but the hitTest() method IS!
I have written a few drag and drop exercises that do work
within Breeze content, and you have to use the hitTest() method to
accomplish it.
As you already have discovered, the bottom line is that the
learning components were intended to be "stand alone" objects that
could be incorporated into a web page (or even a CD as these
objects are nothing more than swf files). Aside from the fact that
the prebuilt/preconfigured learning objects in flash don't always
work in Breeze, in my mind, the bigger question here is the ability
(or more accurately) the inability to connect these SCO's to an LMS
for tracking. As stand alone objects, they're actually pretty
handy...but not in Breeze.
I realize this doesn't help much with what you're trying to
do, but from my perspective, you're better off creating your own
drag n' drops.
I've got a bunch of examples to share if you'd like to take a
look...just send me a PM or email if you're interested.

Can I distribute my software with embedded Flash Player (NPSWF32.dll) ?

I'm developing a program that use QtWebKit to display flash content. Adobe Flash Player need to be installed in the computer in order to run my program.
I've found a way to ship Flash Player with my program by include a NPSWF32.dll(not a flash player installer) into my installer.
Is this method break the Adobe Flash Player License?

Here is details about Flash Player distribution.
http://www.adobe.com/ie/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html
There is a line mentioning in this way "Licensee must use the installers as-is without modification."

Embedding Flash Player in a website

I would like to embed Flash Player in my website and add
video trailers for my dvd's. Do I need to purchase Flash Player
software to create this or is there html that I can simply add? I

http://results.bayequest.info/2minvideo/,
but for now I'm using YouTube and the quality stinks. My website is
www.WHolisticHorsemanship.com. Any suggestions? Thank you
