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?

Flash Player 9 for Linux

Could someone at Adobe please update us with what is
happening with Flash Player 9 for Linux? I noticed that other Flex
components have been released for Linux, so obviously there is some
groundwork to Flash Player 9.

Will alienate? They've already alienated users a long time
ago. That isn't the point, though, because it doesn't matter if
users are alienated, it only matters if the users need flash.
The only thing that could make flash player better is open
source. I don't see why they don't do it. They make money on the
authoring tool, not the player. All of my Linux machines are ppc
and x86_64, no flash there. I also don't have flash on my PDA, a
Palm T|X. If the player was open sourced, people would stop
complaining about how much flash sucks -- because, right now, there
are very serious, legitimate, complaints against it.
Anyway, for now I'm hoping that SVG matures quickly.
Although, I"m sure that once Adobe sees that train coming, they
will extend Flash (dev.) to export SVG movies containing embedded
binary data that can only play with their binary plugin.

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 for WinCE OS in the Visual Studio IDE, then
we could develop
> the
> applicaton using Flash ActiveX Object in WinCE.
>
> question2: If question1 is yes, where can we find this
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.

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

Try following line with FP9 on Linux

Flash player for small linux device

Hi forum,
I'm working with small linux devices and I'm having a very
decent restriction on the Compactflash / harddisk size. Is there a
small stand-alone flash player for linux which plays at least
Flash4? The player should have less than 1.5 MB in size. Therefore
flash player 9 from adobe is not an option.
I've tried the stand alone player version 6 from adobe, but
this player is too much buggy on the linux basis we use.
Any hints or suggestions would be appreciated.
Kind regards.

Hi, I'm not familiar with Linux, but this link has the system requirements for Flash Player 9.
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/systemreqs/flashplayer9/
Flash Player is a browser plug in and works thru your browser, so check and see what browser and version is needed for FP version 9.
It appears that Flash Player 8 is not supported for Linux, at least it wasn't listed.

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.

Flash Player for Debian Linux v7.6?

I have Flash Player running on Firefox when I boot in Windows XP. Flash Player will not even show the icon in step 5 of the help page when I boot in Debian Linux v7.6, even though the page shows that I have the correct version of Flash Player (v11.2.202.356) installed. It is always activated when I start Firefox. Some quirk of Linux also installs Shockwave Flash v10.1 r999. Could this be screwing up Flash Player? Do I have to switch to Ubuntu or Red Hat to use Flash Player?

From Adobe Lans web site above:
Adobe Labs is currently featuring prerelease versions of the Flash Player 9 Update software. This update includes enhancements and bug fixes for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux versions of Flash Player 9. Please see the release notes for more information regarding this prerelease technology. The prerelease program for Flash Player 9 for Solaris is closed at this time, and Solaris versions of Flash Player 9 will be available shortly from Adobe.com.

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.

Adobe Flash Player 13 for Linux

I've encountered recently in a survey a video what Adobe calls Flash Player 13.o, which is not available for Linux.
Hence my question, is another solution for Linux users or is it only a matter of time before this version is available for Linux?

Is there an Version of Adobe Flash Player for Mozilla Firefox too?

Flash player problems on Linux machines

Here are some problems, I noticed when using Flash player on linux machine. I've tried different browsers on different Linux builds. And these problems I've got with each.
1) Some images and contents of sites are displayed wrongly. This problem has it's own discussion
2) In non-latin languages (eg Russian) there are some problems with entering information. If symbol is 2 or more bytes in UTF-8 charset, it will be displayed serially as its bytes are going in ascii anci charset. I find that difficult to use.
I'll add more, while I'll find them.

Some browsers had resvolved first problem.
FF 3.5 Beta 4 for example

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.
