Flash Player / Air telemetry data ?

Hello Adobe and Community
What about to add a telemetry data function to Flash Player & Air similar to Mozilla's about:telemetry / metrics.mozilla.com ?
- OS / Version / Patch Level
- CPU / GPU / RAM / Chipset / ...
- Audio / Video / Chipset Drivers
- Browser / Version / Settings
- Flash Player Version / Settings
- DirectX / OpenGL / ...
- Display / Resolution / FPS / CPU&GPU load
It should/could be added as an opt-in UI into the installers or on first use.
Reason:
To get better performance feedback from the "real world" to make it smoother on low end devices.

Thanks for the suggestion. The adoption of the Beta Channel over the last few months has been phenomenal, and we have a large enough population to do highly accurate sampling and A/B testing.
We're actively designing and approach and corresponding infrastructure to gain new insight into Flash Player performance in the field.
Best regards,
Jeromie Clark

Should you download adobe flash player after Adobe flash player out of date, Is this an Apple message or an Adobe message.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Safari users are seeing a message telling them to update Flash Player. That's because Apple has blocked Flash because of a security problem that was being used to hack PCs and Macs.
In your case, accept to download the Flash update and it will take you to the Flash Player download website. If you aren't sure, you can download Flash manually > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer After installing the update, restart the Mac

How to keep Adobe Flash Player up to date on 100 computers?

I would like to keep 100 computers updated to the latest Adobe Flash Player version when a new version is launched. The users do not have administrative privileges to install software and Adobe Flash Player cannot be updated automatically. There are cases when Adobe Flash Player disappears after a new version is launched.

Must be Auto update flash Player/AIR [No update alert]

Every second day Adobe are improving the flash player and AIR, so Flash Player must be Auto update to newer versions and (Major and minor) [No update alert]. It should auto check, and auto download and auto update the flash player. There should not be any user interaction needed. And no administration rights as Flash player is already installed on system, Adobe is just auto updating it. So no alert or dialog box to update player just auto update with out any message as Google Chorme is doing right now (Google chrome update the browser application without any alert to user). So Please follow it.
Why it's required: Every second day Adobe programmers are improving and adding new features, but Flash/Flex developers around the globe can not use those features as their target customers (users) don't have the updated version of flash player/AIR. We can show the alert but we know most of users pick the "NO" as their preferred option.
How can Adobe implement this, there are privacy issue: Adobe can implement this by changing their Adobe flash player agreement (for new installations). They can add one "Flash player policy" web page to their website and link at their home page. Adobe can add one more menu element in their setting tab (right click flash player menu). It's will take little time but for future, it will be really easy for developers to adopt the new feature and software from Adobe.
Please think about it.

Hi ersatyle,
Thanks for clarifying.
will flash player be automatically updated while a standard user is connected (no admin rights) and without any notifications.
By pointing the Background Updater to an internal server, yes.
Are those settings will work as I intended?
The AutoUpdateInterval setting in the mms.cfg has no effect on the Background Updater. AutoUpdateInterval can only be used for the notification updater. If you're setting up background updates from an internal server, this property is best dropped from the mms.cfg to avoid confusion. The other settings will work as expected. Once you have your clients set up and tested, I also recommend dropping SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging, since this will reduce the size of the log file.
As we'll use 32 bits browsers do I need to put the mms.cfg file also in c$\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash, If it wont work, is it doable?
There is only one location for the mms.cfg. The same file is used for 32-bit and 64-bit browsers. From the administration guide, page 22:
mms.cfg file location:
Assuming a default Windows installation, Flash Player looks for the mms.cfg file in the following system directories:
•32-bit Windows - %WINDIR%\System32\Macromed\Flash
•64-bit Windows - %WINDIR%\SysWow64\Macromed\Flash
Note: The %WINDIR% location represents the Windows system directory, such as C:\WINDOWS.
I hope this answers your questions. Let us know if there's anything else.

Flash Player Post Back data to server

Hello,
I have a flash based application that I am having a data
transfer issue with.
1 particular user can access the flash application which is
populated from our server via XML. However when he tries to send
data back to the server nothing is received.
He has a Mac Book Pro laptop and when he is at home he has no
issues using the application to receive data and sending it
back....but when he is in his office with the same Mac Book he can
only receive and not send back.
I am guessing it is some sort of Firewall issue. Can anyone
tell me what I can discuss with their IT department on what they
need to open up in order for the Flash Player to send data back
(although he is receiving data fine) to our server???
Is this more of a firewall/network issue or a Flash Player
setting? I am not too familiar with the various firewall settings
and how it relates to flash permissions etc.
Thank you for your response

any one give a suggestion?

How flash player takes raw data from webcam to display it ?

Hello,
I would like to know that how flash player takes data from webcam and display it on video display object, does flash player process the raw data comes from webcam meanscompress it or apply any kind of matrix / filter and then display it on video display object or stage ?
Thanks,
Jankrut

to create a movieclip button:
create a movieclip (insert/new symbol/movieclip) and attach a stop() to its first frame and label it "up". create whatever graphics you want for the button movieclip's up-state. create an "over" frame and, if needed, a "down" frame.
when you place this movieclip button on-stage give it an instance name (say, printer1) and use:
printer1.onRollOver=function(){
this.gotoAndStop("over");
printer1.onRollOut=printer1.onDragOut=function(){
this.gotoAndStop("up");
printer1.onPress=function(){
this.gotoAndStop("down");
// and add your onRelease to do whatever.
if you also wanted to add a textfield that displays the button's instance name when the button is rolled-over, place a textfield on the "over" frame and give it an instance name (say tf) and attached to the movieclip's "over" frame use:
tf.text=this._name;

Vimeo audio stutters in Safari 7 (Mavericks), Flash Player up to date, plug-ins are switched ON, extensions switched OFF.

Noticing this problem recently, guessing it has been occurring since the update to Mavericks.
Video from Vimeo is streaming fine but the audio stutters from the beginning and never improves.
As the title suggests, I have ensured that my Flash Player is up to date, I have switched off the new Safari feature which will turn off plug-ins to save power (so the plug-ins are allowed to run immediately on my system) and I have switched off all Safari extensions.
I have found a number of threads in the communities but no solutions so far.
No problems with YouTube audio.
And no problems with Firefox or Chrome - audio is flawless. It is a Safari-issue.
Anybody got any ideas?

Adobe flash player "out of date"?

When I was on Facebook, a pop-up said my Adobe flash player was out of date. I did not download because I just wasn't sure if it was completely safe or not. How can I tell?
Also, does anyone know when the last update for Adobe flash player was? Thanks.

A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this page. Follow the instructions on the page in that case. Otherwise, the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. Facebook is an open sewer overflowing with scams and malware. If you see fake update alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.

After "updating" it still tells me that my Flash Player is out of date.

Hello,
I'm hoping you can help. My MacBook notified me to update my Flash Player. However, After I did complete the update it still says Flash Player Out of Date. Can you please help me?

For some reason my Flash Player just started working. I had tried about 5 times to install it each time at the end it said my flash player is out of date. Suddenly it changes? Something is very strange about that.

I just downloaded Adobe Flash Player, but I still get a message that "flash player is out of date". I run on Mac OS X Yosemite. How can I fix this? I cannot play videos!

Yosimite, Flash Player 15, Adobe Air and Zinio 4

Using Yosemite, Safari and have uninstalled all the Flash Player. Downloaded latest version of Flash Player Air. Ok , but when i try to open the Zinio package I get notification that the Flash file is broken and will not open. Weird

The documentation at your link for Sleep Mode lists what you can do to override it:

Primarily: The backlight sleep mode is disabled on a mobile device: the runtime behaves normally.
A configurable backlight timeout could also be used to make it work fully longer.

Rtmfp connection between content running on flash player and air for mobile

HI, I've been developing an app for some time that makes use of a secondary application as a remote controller.
Until AIR3.5 this worked smoothly through RTMFP: the original app (the "player") started listening at both local network ("rtmfp:") and with the aid of the Cirrus service ("rtmfp://p2p.rtmfp.net/mycirruskey"). The controller app (the "remote") first try to establish a connection on the local network and, if it does not succeed, try to locate the player using Cirrus (usually when it was run from a device connected on a 3G network).
This approach was surprisingly effective (I guess rtmfp and the cirrus service are indeed very nice), but now I'm updating my apps using AIR3.7 and the problems began - and I didn't change a single line from the original code... First, I am unable to connect the mobile app to the flash player using local rtmfp, the netgroup just doesn't get any neighbor. Second, even with the aid of Cirrus, I can only establish the connection if the player and the remote are connected on different networks (like one on my wifi connection and the other on 3G). If I put both, the computer running the player and the mobile running the remote on the same wifi, the connection is never completed.
To make the problem even stranger, if I save the player as an AIR application, for mobile or desktop, the cirrus connection does work perfeclty, so it seems that the problem is related to connections to the flash player itself.
Is this an expected baheviour of AIR3.7 for some sort of security issue (limiting flash player/air apps connection)? If not, is there a way to solve it?
Thank you!

Interestingly air 3.7 on IOS to Desktop air 3.7 will work.
I am investigating if I can use 3.7 on Android to connect to 3.7 on iOS - so far I cannot get the apk to install on my Galaxy S3, compile using 3.4 and all is good. Air runtime has been updated via Play store - and build uses compiled runtime.
I cannot get Flash player 11.4 to connect with air 3.7 on iOS either.
NetGroup.Neighbour.Connect never fires.
All SDKS above 3.4 upto 3.8 beta exhibit the same problem.
3.4 works perfectly and can connect to flash player, and other Air/iOS devices just fine.
Shuld not be a issue with firewalls etc, thay are all open.
I can email you the fla, it is for a product so I can't post it here.
Thanks,
Steve.

Cannot install Flash Player using IE 11, but Firefox works

I have an issue in QuickBooks that required IE to use Flash Player to view data. It stopped working a while ago, I think when I reloaded Firefox. I tried uninstalling Flash Player (and even Firefox) and then tried to download flash player again via IE and it still will not download anything using the Adobe download page. If I use Firefox, it downloads and works, however my QuickBooks application still errors out. How can I download Flash Player for IE11 (Windows 7).

Try the offline installer: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_ax.e xe
