Different behaviour of Flash content when on server

Hi
I have noticed different behaviours of my Flash movie in case
a/ I am checking offline content (SWF) using the fault view (Show All)
b/ I am checking the SWF in a HTML file on a server.
More concrete: Depending on a number of conditions I attach a movieclip to a certain object. This works fine in offline mode.
Another example: Depending on a certain zoom level of the application, I unload some SWF.
All works fine offline.
When I check this online, the attach movieclip function only works in some cases, the unload of SWF does not work .
What can be the cause ?
bestregards

Not sure about most of your questions -- this is all new stuff for me, too. But on this one item, I hope this helps:
For example it tells me that a plugin (which has already been installed) needs to be installed.If you installed the Mozilla browser after initially installing the java plugin in IE, then the plugin needs to be installed within the Mozilla browser's plugins directory. And I have never been able to get Netscape or Firefox to install a Forms plugin properly. It seems like I need to run IE to get the plugin installed automatically. Then I go back to the other browser and all is ok. Looking into the Mozilla-based browser's plugins folders, I can see that running the plugin install through IE also copies the corresponding .dll file into all the Mozilla-based browsers' plugins folders.
But since you have already installed the plugin in IE, I am not sure how you would get it to work for the other browser. But if you can identify the .dll required, just copy it yourself into your Mozilla browser's folder.

Unable to interact with Flash content when running Firefox with restricted user

When running Firefox with limited Windows user on Windows XP the Flash elements are displayed, the content that is set to auto-play does so even, but the flash area doesn't receive any mouse input: e.g. when I right click in the area instead of the flash context menu I get the browser context menu as if the flash plug-in wasn't even there. The exact same page on the exact same computer but with Administrator user works as expected: can press buttons, interact with flash controls and the context menu upon right-click is of course the flash one. This behavior occurs even if I disable all add-ons.

Try uninstalling your sound card driver in Device Manager and reboot your PC.

Will firefox still support flash content when my phone updates to 4.1 (jellybean)?

Does Firefox use it's own flash plugin or will it be disabled when my phone updates?

Generally, no. The problem is not with Firefox. It is an Adobe decision. Read Adobe's statement below
*Adobe's statement --> https://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2012/06/flash-player-and-android-update.html
**Quote from Adobe statement above: ''If a device is upgraded from Android 4.0 to Android 4.1, the current version of Flash Player may exhibit unpredictable behavior, as it is not certified for use with Android 4.1. Future updates to Flash Player will not work. We recommend uninstalling Flash Player on devices which have been upgraded to Android 4.1.''

Flash content distorts when scrolling and switching tabs.. since FF 13.0.1..

Before describing the issue
Please note from the System Details pane to this post that I have the latest flash, etc.
And Windows updates,are up to date.
==================================================
Issue: Scrolling distorts flash player window (Youtube, hulu, etc.)
Since: FF 13.0.1 update in June. (I posted on the issue under "badly scrambled images".)
Problem is still there with FF 14.0.1
This distortion happens:
# even with just starting the browser (so no bloated cache)
# even with just only one or two tabs open.
And since last week's update to FF 14.01, I have also detected:
Switching to the the tab with flash content will "imprint" the image from the my previous tab on to the flash player. I have to scroll or refresh to get the flash player to show its content.
FYI, none of these flash player problems occur with IE9.
The advise from a regular contributor was to turn off hardware acceleration, but these did not solve this issue.:(
Solutions suggesting disabling all the plugins etc. have not solved the problem either.
So if you can tell me some other way to solve this, I will appreciate it.
Thanks.

Sorry, it took me a while to give feedback for the suggestions you have given here.
(Please refer to sidebar on the original post for system details.)
I have reset the profile and updated the Nvidia driver. The version of FF is 14.0.1. But it still scrambles the pictures.
On top of scrambling the flash content when scrolling, it has additional problems:
As you can see from the attached image, another tab's content is showing on the youtube flash player. This happens when I have paused the video even for a short time.
I have a suspicion that the combination of Flash and Firefox does some weird things to graphic processing and memory.
(I realize that IE implements Flash differently, but they seem to have this right.)
I might just have to say goodbye to Firefox for a while.
Thanks.

Choosing different versions of Flash Player in Flash Catalyst

Greetings everyone,
Is it possible to choose different version of flash player when I publish my website using flash catalyst? Currently it is askinf for flash player 10.2 in order to play. I want to lower down the version of flash player required in order to let more users view my project.
Thanks!

This is an amazingly useful tool as a developer working a
selection of sites which are all catered towards a different target
age range (older people seem to have older versions installed).

[unsolvable] ff 3.6 +nspluginwrapper-flash = flickering when scrolling

Im using nspluginwrapper-flash cuz 64-bit flashplugin was always very laggy for me.
I'm getting pretty annoying flickering of every flash content when scrolling page.
Checked with:
nspluginwrapper-1.3.0-1
nspluginwrapper-flash-10.0.42.34
nspluginwrapper-flash-10_1_p2_linux_121709
+ with removed ~/.mozilla
This problem exists only with firefox, every other browser is working well.
Anybody have noticed something like that? Any clue?

Well... i've just downloaded firefox-nightly 3.7a1pre-3 from AUR, and it seems to be fixed - so maybe in next release of ff 3.6.x it will be fixed also.
Unfortunettly not all of my addons are working ... like firebug - good that im not using it more often.
More important is that NoScript and Adblock are working fine.
But well - it's still not a solution.
Edit: Better make bookmarks backup before switching to firefox-nightly... + nspluginwrapper-flash in unstable with it
Still if you know something - please write it here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=90074

SQL Server Management Studio and Native Client different behaviour on delete

I have a problem with transaction containing insert and delete to same table and some select/insert/update to some other tables. Problematic table has primary key defined as combination of column1 and column2.
When two different instances using Native Client execute simultaneously this code and make inserts to table then delete part of code causes deadlock. However this doesn't happen when trying this situation in MS SQL Server Management Studio query.
Is there some option that is missing from Native Client connection string which can cause this different behaviour?

Hello,
I don't think there is a difference in the behavior. SSMS uses ADO.NET and that Provider base on the Native Client.
The difference will be more that way, when the transaction is commited and so the locks released. I guess your application keeps the transaction (much) longer open; you should commit a transaction as soon as possible to avoid long time locks and so
deadlocks.

Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.

Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Not sure when it statrted

Hi.
When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

Proxy / Cache server for flash content / videos / stream

hi there,
i've tried to search the web, but so far no straight answer...
we are looking to implement/deploy a proxy server to cache and then serve flash content (published in the internet), so we can reduce our internet bandwidth utilization. Windows Server 2008 has Windows Media Services which have a feature to cache windows media content or split live stream. (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/howto/articles/cache_proxy.aspx)
is there a similar product to deal with flash content?
thanks in advance for all responses!

I'm more or less in the same boat. I've got the admin console
up. I am able to run the vodtest application locally pointing the
video file to rtmp://localhost/vod/sample.flv or using the server
name instead of localhost as in rtmp://mclmedia/vod/sample.flv
I can also load the html and swf file to my xp machine that
has access to the server via our internal network. (DNS isn't
configured yet) But the connectionFailed message appears when I try
to call the videos using rtmp://mclmedia/vod/sample.flv

Cursor in Safari disappears when watching Flash Content

This problem persists since the last 3 versions of Safari - problem is: When you come over a site which displays Flash Content (for example www.flickr.com slideshows) after a short time the mouse cursor completely disappears - hovering over the menus seems to indicate, that you can click but since the cursor is not showing it's hard to identify, where you are. Workaround is to switch to another application, there the cursor is visible and you can quit the browser (Safari, Chrome ...)
The latest Flash Plugin is installed, i tried this on different browsers (Firefox, Chrome ...) - it's always the same problem.
I don't want to deinstall my Flash Plugin because there are a lot of sites which are not viewable without the Flash-Plugin - i've been reading lots of discussions here in the Apple Support Communities but there is no fix - the first entries were made about 2 years ago.
Maybe someone has found a fix now.
Thanx & Greetings from Austria

Hello Z:
There is a new flash release (10. something). If you have not done so, you might try that.

IE8 Error when opening Pop-up with Flash Content

I am running into a problem creating a webpage. I am very new to AS3 and not quite a novice at Dw CS3. I have audio files and flash content that is downloadable from my page. The audio is made available by clicking on a flash button that links to an mp3 or wav file. The player then opens and plays the file. I also created some flash animations that are accessed by flash buttons I also created and put on my webpage. I added scripting (AS3) for those buttons that defines a pop-up window size and points to an html page to put into the pop-up window. I'm really not sure if this script is the most efficient. It probably isn't. The script is below: (Note: I could not paste it in so I retyped it. Don't know why, but the script works even though there might be syntax errors below.)
      //define variable "jscommand" that has URL to open and pop-up window parameters
var jscommand:String="window.open('Multiplication.html,'miniwindow','height=440,width=605,toolbar=yes,scrollbar=no');";
      //define variable "openflashURL" which runs "jscommand"
var openflashURL:URLRequest("javascript"+jscommand+"void(0);");
      //define function "openflashdown" that initiates URL request
function openflashdown(Event:MouseEvent):void{
NavigateToURL(openflashURL,"_self"};
      //define button listener
Mult_FlashPlayer_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,openflashdown);
The problem is as follows: When I click on the flash buttons that use the above script, I get a pop-up window with the .swf in it and everything runs fine. Next, when I click on an audio button, the mp3 file downloads and the player (Real) begins to play it. But if I try to open up the flash animation again I get this error message from IE8 "Unspecified Error Internet Explorer cannot download".
I tried to find anwsers on-line and I found another person with a similar problem. Their solution was to take the javascript code out of the flash button coding and put it in the html page directly. I took the first line on code in the above and put it in the html code. Dw did not recognize it as code but as text. I don't know where to go from here. Does anyone know what to do? I'm a beginner so please be as clear as you can be.

Firefox freezes many times when I'm playing Flash Contents (Youtube)

Hello. I have upgraded to Firefox 2.6.8 a while ago. The problem occurred recently. Whenever I play Flash Content usually on Youtube, Firefox freezes for many times and it makes my computer runs slower. It's not normal because I have a fast computer

YouTube videos use the Flash plugin. You can test your Flash plugin and see what version is installed by going to [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's Flash Player test page]. To update Flash to the latest version, see [[Managing the Flash plugin]].
Starting in Firefox 3.6.4, Flash is loaded in a separate plugin-container process. For the background, see the articles [[What is plugin-container]] and [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins Plugin-container and out-of-process plugins (MozillaZine KB)].
If Firefox hangs when playing Flash videos at YouTube, it could be a video driver issue, Try turning off hardware acceleration in your [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player display settings] (visit any page that uses Flash, such as [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's test page], then right-click the Flash animation, select Settings, and uncheck "Enable hardware acceleration" on the Display panel). ...More information here:

Sluggishness when viewing Flash contents

Im not sure when, but probably after I updated my Firefox
from v1.5 to 2.0, I experienced sluggishness whenever there's Flash
contents in websites.
I realised the quality is set to high by default. And that
caused the sluggishness. How to configure the quality setting so
that I can change it to Medium as default? Because whenever I
change manually by right clicking on the flash content as set it to
'medium', if i close the broswer and reopened (or even refresh the
page), the quality flash content is set to high again as default.
anyone can help me with this? Thanks

This isn't just an issue with FF2. I have experienced this
issue on both FF 1.0.5 and 1.5.
The more flash content, the worse FF responds.
