Flash Player plugin in Firefox does not play sound or crashes when connected via RDP (+RemoteFX)

Hello everybody,
I am using Windows 8.1 Enterprise in an VDI infrastructure to connect to my desktop residing in an Hyper-V environment providing also RemoteFX support. Therefore in my virtual desktop to which I connect through RDP a virtual graphic adapter offers direct GPU support and 3D acceleration.
When using Firefox 25.0.1 in combination with the latest relase of Adobe Shockwave Player 11.9.900.152 (tried also several older releases), all embedded videos are only played without sound. Furthermore when trying to play a video on youtube that video starts fine for about 5sec and then an youtube error message is displayed saying something about technical problems.
However, all videos incl. youtube are played flawless when using Internet Explorer on the same desktop.
Is there any solution for that ? Is it a bug or simply not supported ?
Thank you for your help !

After a little bit of trial and error, then some digging it turns out flash over RDP/RemoteFX just isn't going to work. I did discover that Vimeo does work fine (sound and all) as it uses its own player, not flash. Here's a link to a discussion on the issue which should exlain it better than I can: How to get good video performance for remote access to virtualized computer? - Super User

  • I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but I'm still missing Flash Player?

    So I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, and I'm able to watch youtube videos on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that i got along with my Samsung monitor, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not infact have flash player. Also, when I try playing a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be, and it says that i do not have flash player, and it is required to watch these videos. I tried uninstalling, and I was unable to watch youtube, and when i reinstalled, I was able to watch youtube again, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something I'm missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

    Odds are it's looking for the IE plugin: (A lot of software just assumes ALL Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    or the standalone Player:

    I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player.  It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
    Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    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.

  • Circular redirection when trying to install Flash Player plugin in Firefox

    When I try to update the Flash Player plugin in Firefox (25.0.x) under WinXP (32bit), WinVista (64bit) and Win7 n(64bit), I'm directed to the "Get Flash Player" page. When I click "Install), I'm redirected to an Adobe Products page, which has a "Get Flash Player link"; when I click on that link, I'm redirected to the (previous) Get Flash Player page, where, when I click "Install", I'm redirected to the same Adobe products page, and so on and so on and so on. What the h*** is going on, and how do I get to download the Flash Player plugin?

    I don't know why this is happening, but try downloading the offline installer(s):
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Notification center does not play sound when receiving notifications.

    Why my new ipad Notification center does not play sound when receiving notifications.

    Settings>Notifications .... Did you set up the various apps to receive notifications?
    Do have system sounds muted?
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • My HP Notebook G355 does not play sounds well.

    Hello. I have an issue. My notebook does not play sounds (music, videos, system sounds) well. There is always this other extra sound that blocks the music for instance. At first I thought maybe it was the speakers, then I connected external speakers, the same thing happened and I connected earphones, the sane thing happens so I don't know what the problem is and if there is anything I can do to fix this.
    Thank you so much done your help.

    Hello @enara ,
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
    Even though this is a Commercial product, I would try these fixes.
    1. Right click speaker icon (right hand corner)
    2. Select Playback devices
    3. Right click Speakers
    4. Enable it and set as Default
    5. Click Apply/Ok
    Here is a link to troubleshoot the sound.
    I hope this fixes the sound for you.
    Thanks.

  • My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either.

    My Canon MX 922 does not scan. My printer is connected via cable. Wireless doesn't work either.  I get an error message with multiple suggestions but none of them apply to my situation.
    I am so dissatisfied with this printer.  I'm sorry I got it from Amazon because now it is a hassle to return it.  I will never buy another Canon.
    The printer menus are confusing.  I hate using it.  I loved my previous Canon which finally stopped working after many years, that's why I purchased a newer Canon model.  Never again.  Stick with cameras.
    Marcy Hotz

    This note won't be as angry and frustrated as the last one...
    Because I still had my old printer drivers and other applications on my hard drive, I think the application was trying to connect with the old printer.  I deleted all the old stuff.
    I also had several scanning applications on my drive which just confused me.
    When I used the actual Canon MX922 application, I was able to scan but could only save as JPG, TIF or BMP (and one more, I forget which).  So I did some research on the Canon site and found out how to save documents as PDF files using the Canon IJ Scan Utility.
    It works now.  So I'm satisfied, will keep this maching.  I just had to take some time, sit down and focus on the problem.

  • I have the latest Adobe flash player installed but it does not show up in my add-ons or plug-ins on Firefox 3.6. In the plug-in check, it recognizes that the shockwave flash is up to date. How can I have the plug-in appear and be enabled on firefox?

    I have uninstalled the flash player and installed it numerous times with no recognition by the Firefox plug-ins. I also have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it as well. I have also restarted my computer several times as well. The flash player is certainly installed but not working on Firefox. Thanks in advance for your help.

    James j,
    You have a different problem. Your screenshot shows "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed".

  • Player Settings Menu Intermittently Does Not Work / Settings Manager Crashes - Firefox 6.0/Windows 7

    1)  I occasionally have a problematic issue with the Flash Player Settings menu, primarily with SocialVibe (media.socialvi.be) applications associated with FarmVille, activities such as video quizzes and interactive surveys.  Sometimes after loading these applications, the Player Settings menu opens requesting permission for local storage space changes, however I am unable to left-click on anything at all within the Player Settings menu: Allow/Deny the requested change, manual storage setting adjustment, switching tabs within the menu, or (particularly frustrating) to close the menu.  Usually if the Player Settings menu requests a local storage change, I can select my preference and it works properly.
    When the Player Settings menu opens and is non-functional, the application will still run in the background, seemingly without issue, but is inaccessible because the Player Settings menu is active.  I have tried closing/refreshing the application, but the menu still remains unusable.  Many times there are several activities offered one right after another.  When one is completed, the link refreshes and a new application becomes available.  Each application is unique and only available for a very limited time.  The inability to make changes or close the Player Settings menu effectively blocks these activities from being completed.  Since I cannot complete the activity, the link for itwill not refresh, so I am stuck with an application where the Player Settings menu will not function properly and I have no opportunities for new activities.
    Interestingly, when the Player Settings menu is oblivious to left-clicking with the mouse, I am able to select the options of Allow/Deny/Close by using the tab key on the keyboard to highlight the appropriate button, however pressing enter does nothing.  I can also right-click with the mouse and access the menu for Settings/Global Settings/About, which works properly.  In this menu, when I choose Settings, it takes me to the Local Storage tab of the Player Settings menu, however I am still unable to make any changes, switch tabs or close the menu.  When I choose About, it will load the Flash Player webpage and it does tell me that I have the most current version (10,3,183,5) successfully installed.  When I choose Global Settings, it will open the Flash Player Settings Manager, which I am able to navigate and modify (mostly, related issue below).
    2)  I also have an issue with the Flash Player Settings Manager.  When I try to open the Local Storage Settings by Site, the Settings Manager will usually crash.  It crashes whether I open the Settings Manager from the Player Settings right-click menu or through the Windows Control Panel.  I had originally assumed that there must be so many websites listed that want storage permissions that it takes a while to load, but until this evening it had never loaded successfully and would go unresponsive almost immediately.  This evening I attempted to access the Local Storage Settings by Site many times, crashing and restarting the Settings Manager, until it finally loaded.
    In the Local Storage Settings by Site, media.socialvi.be (SocialVibe) is shown as having 0kb Storage Used and Ask Me under Storage Settings.  Because every application from SocialVibe is different, I want Flash to ask me each time it wants to change the storage settings, so I do not want to set its permission to Allow.  From reading through the Flash troubleshooting webpages, I understand that choosing Block may cause the applications to not run correctly, and I do want them to run properly.  The local storage request from media.socialvi.be was 5kb as shown in the Player Settings menu (that wasn't working), so if the Player Settings menu is not functioning and I must allow some level of storage, is there a way that I can specify how much to allow using the Settings Manager without setting the permission to Allow?  I do not feel that websites should be able to store as much information as they see fit on my machine, and as I want to keep as much advertisement information, tracking, cookies, etc. off my computer as possible, setting the permission to Allow seems to be a risky permission.
