Flash Player wont play a live stream (WIN or LINUX)

hi everyone,
i have an issue with my flash player (LATEST VERSION) on both my windown and also linux OS.  while trying to view a live stream from either twitch.tv or justin.tv, i get a cream colored background where the video should be displayed, however youtube and a few other sites work fine.  i have tried a number of things to try to resolve this issue such as re-installing, disabling all other addons, installing an older version, reseting IE and Firefox to default and nothing seems to work. i have the exact same issue on my linux also (ubuntu 12 LTS).......  
although you may think i should just got to another streaming site that does work. twitch tv and justin tv are the only one that stream the content i am looking for. (dust 514/EVE weekly live video cast) (http://www.twitch.tv/ccp/old).
can anyone give me any info on this matter, or how i may be able to resolve it.
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

My computer info is as follows :   vista sp2, IE 9 + Firefox 19.0.2       -         2nd OS =  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS   with Firefox

  • Flash player keeps freezing on live streams

    Why does my flash player keep freezing when I play live videos. When I play live videos on youtube like concerts they always freeze after about 2 minutes and then I have to refresh my browser. The same thing happens when I try to use Tinychat and it gets frustrating that I have to keep resfreshing my browser. I have tried uninstalling flash and reinstalling it again but that doesn't help.

    This Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW8p8JO2hQw In 1080p
    Firefox:
    doesnt go further from here, just stops.
    Internet progress:
    Now with Chrome! :
    (It did stop buffering after 8minutes for whatever reason but it was more lag (my connection) as it showed spinning circles then started again, on firefox there are no spinning circles, it just stops and never goes further.)
    But it did buffer it all?
    Chrome connection:
    I also have this issue with
    majorleaguegaming.com/live
    and
    Twitch.tv streams. It's not JUST youtube, and it works in Chrome I just learned..

  • Flash player wont play vids

    I just downloaded the latest version of flash player and i
    checked everything out and it says its installed and most flash
    required programs work except for videos, for example when i try
    youtube its says i need the latest version of adobes flash player
    or i have java turned off, well ive checked java at least 200 times
    and acording to my computer i have the latest version of flash
    player, SO WHATS THE PROBLEM?!?!?!?!?!

    Hi, The oddnews link played ok for me(XP/SP3). I don't have Win7 so can't test on that. However under the Help section is this you may want to review: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/news/technical/;_ylt=AsvmX6X1dZvvFvUS.tVvfw9.FiR4
    Now I have hardware acceleration ON and the latest vs of FP as well. I did notice that when right clicking on the above video when it was playing that I could choose low/medium/high. I had it on high and didn't have any audio or video issues.
    Some Yahoo videos just have a problem. I'd search that Help section and if that doesn't help, contact Yahoo. You never know how the video that doesn't play is coded so that's what I think. If it won't play on any browser, then it's probably the video.
    Youtube is a good indicator and that's what I'd go by.
    Be careful roaming around without your Firewall on, too many bad guys out there! Just looking for an opening.
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found

    NOTE: This thread was started in the flash pro forum: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/898879?tstart=0 . However, because of adninjastrators recommandation, I open the thread here:
    Hello there,
    I have started a stream from Flash media encoder to flash media server. According to my encoder, it should be located at: "rtmp://localhost/live" and is called livestream.
    In the Flash  software I try and set the source of FLVPlayback component to "rtmp://localhost/live/livestream", and I get this error: "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.". Both the server and encoder is runnind and I am encoding.
    Too, when I try and open the html with the stream in a browser, nothing appears.
    What should I check?
    Thanks.
    Kind regards,
    Marius

    Thanks for your reply.
    Server, encoder and player are all on the same computer.
    Admin console confirms the existence of "livestream" of type "Live" and a "NetStream" called "ABAF". No idea what the latter is.
    Also, thought I'd mention that I have to start the servers from the Control Panel -> administrative tools -> services. If I try and start the server from the start menu, they dont start.
    Thank you for your time.
    Kind regards,

    So just to clarify, the server is installed on the same machine that you are using to do the encoding, correct?
    And you are using Flash Media Live Encoder to do the encoding?
    I don't have Flash CS5 for I'm not sure what is in there to do the encoding.. but more on FMLE here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/flashmediaencoder/
    There are two step used to get the encoding going with FMLE...
    1. after setting all the config settings, click the "Connect" button. Then open the encoding log and you will be able to see if connection was made to the server or not. Can you successfully connect to the server? if not, what is the error message?
    2. click the "Start" button and in the encoding log, you will see that the audio and video encoding has started. What does the encoding log say?
    Best wishes,

  • Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work?

    I tried to play a game I love & I got this message: "To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed" So I went to your site to update my flash player & hit the "Test Flash Player" button & it came up
    like this^^. I went to the suggestions your site provided & went to Manage add-ons to look for Shockwave Flash Object to enable it:
    You can see that it is enabled by this picture I have provided. So it also asks me to make sure that ActiveX isn't clicked on & so I did:
    As you can see it's turned off & I even tried it the other way where it has the spot checked & it still wont play. So I decided to see if I could reinstall it onto my computer & so in turn I got this message:
    That is the message I got even after trying to delete Flash Player & reinstalling it. Now you can see my frustration with all this. Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work? I have a Windows 8.1 Pro, I use Internet Explorer which has the latest version on it, which is Windows Explorer 11 Version: 11.0.9600.17498 & I was also under the understanding that I also had the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on this computer as well. Can someone tell me what to do??

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • Get Flash Player To Play On Top Of Other Windows

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on a Dell XPS 8100 with Intel i7 Processor.  I am using Windows Live Mail and a Hotmail Live Account for my email.  When I click on a link to a video in an email Adobe Flash Player always plays underneath the open windows necessitating my minimizing the other windows to view the video.  Other than that Flash Player works great.  I am using Mozilla Firefox as my default browser.  IE 9 is my other browser.  All browsers, Flash Player, and the ATI Radeon 5700 video card are up to date.  Windows Media Player and Quicktime Player play on top of open email.  Thanks, Sam

    I have now isolated this playing on bottom to swf files.  Every time my friends with Macs send email attachments I get this.  I don't have a solution yet, but the Jpegs and Videos are playing nicely on the bottom window.  I just minimize the windows on top for now.  I hope to solve this issue even though no viewers of my post so far have come up with a solution. 

  • Problem playing remote live stream from FMS

    Hello all,
    I'm having problems playing remote live streams from FMS (server-side) that I can play with any other player (client-side)
    Example of server-side application which plays a remote live stream:
    nc = new NetConnection();
    nc.connect("rtmp://remoteserver/live");
    stream = Stream.get("localStream");
    stream.play("remoteStream.flv", -1, -1, true, nc);
    This code works only sometimes.
    Most of the times, FMS is able to connect to remote string and the localStream dispatches events:
       NetStream.Publish.Strart
       NetStream.Play.Reset
    In this case, FMS is publishing the local stream but it is not playing the remoteStrem on it.
    The rest of the times, localStream dispatches events:
       NetStream.Publish.Strart
       NetStream.Play.Reset
       NetStream.Play.Start
       NetStream.Data.Start
    In this case FMS plays the remoteStream correctly.
    Any hint to solve this issue?
    Regards.

    Thanks, I tried your code and it works when playing a remote live stream on another FMS.
    But the remote live stream is not on a FMS but on a Wowza Server which re-streams an RTSP stream over RTMP.
    With this code:
    var nc;
    var myStream;
    application.onAppStart = function(){
         nc = new NetConnection();
         myStream = Stream.get("localstream");
         myStream.onStatus= function(info){
               trace(info.code);
         nc.onStatus = function(info){
               trace (info.code);
               if(info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success" ){
                    myStream.play("remoteLive.sdp", -1, -1, true, nc);
         nc.connect("rtmp://remoteServer/live");
    Every live stream player I tried was able to play the remote stream "remoteLive.sdp", but FMS play it only sometimes. This is the output log of the FMS application:
    NetConnection.Connect.Success
    NetStream.Publish.Start
    NetStream.Play.Reset        <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
    Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
    NetConnection.Connect.Success
    NetStream.Publish.Start
    NetStream.Play.Reset        <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
    Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
    NetConnection.Connect.Success
    NetStream.Publish.Start
    NetStream.Play.Reset
    NetStream.Play.Start         <--------------------------------- Stream is playing just fine
    NetStream.Data.Start
    Unloaded application instance wowza4/_definst_ <--- Reload app
    NetConnection.Connect.Success
    NetStream.Publish.Start
    NetStream.Play.Reset       <--------------------------------- Stuck there, stream won't play
    Any idea? Why FMS won't play it everytime?
    Regards

  • Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.16 on Win 8.1 64bit ES logs out user at the end of Youtube film

    Dear Players.
    My Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.167 on Win 8.1 64bit ES (Spanish) in IE11 logs out user at the end of Youtube film. In Event viewer there is apparently no error information. I use Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook S6410, where on Windows Vista 32 bit and IE9 with current Flash there was no problem on Youtube films.
    I have a feeling that initially after installing Windows 8 and 8.1 the films of Youtube finished correctly showing a mosaic of proposed next films. Now when the film ends, and the mosaic of the proposals should appear, the user is logged out.
    I did all the Adobe recommendations, and it does not help. Yet the problem is only with Youtube for the moment. All other Flash content on other pages shows ok.
    Any suggested solution?
    Kind regards
    Marcin Balcerzyk, Seville, Spain.

    Hello,
    Microsoft has been changing how they identify IE in the UserAgent string in IE11 (and in more recent versions of IE10). This has been occurring over various releases and it's not new to the latest updates.  As you see, sometimes they identify as Netscape/Mozilla instead of IE.  You can Google 'Microsoft User-agent string' the search will return various MSDN articles on this topic.  Long story short, most websites use OS/browser version in the user-agent string to display content for that particular combination, however, Microsoft wants content developers to use feature detection, not browser detection.  Compatibility view will work because Microsoft will change the user-agent string properties to something prior to the changes they've made.  By doing this, Microsoft leaves it up to the content developer to update their site.  Some have, some have not.

  • HT1338 have mac os x 10.5.8 Adobe flash player wont update without 10.6 version, when i hit update software says i have latest.

    I have been having a problem for the last week.  Use pogo.com and it wanted me to update the Adobe Flash Player to play 1/2 the games on the site.  When I updated it said needed os x version 10.6 or higher for latest version.  Currently have os x 10.5.8 when I hit update software it says that I have the latest version of software and doesn't update.

    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
