Graphic accelellator used by flash content

Is the possibility of graphic accelellation hardware usage by flash content a valid option/preference
of current flash version?
As described here:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
Why is this preference not placed in Global Settings Panel?
I think, it should be placed in Global Settings Panel, so one can with one operation
disable this support for all url's.

OK I understand more clearly now.
No, there is no public option for disabling GPU acceleration across all played content.   We intended to leave it to the developer as to whether or not they chose to use gpu mode (which most do not).
This seems like an unusual request. Why do you want it?
Actually, don't tell me.  Write it up as a feature request in the public bugbase:

  • Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents

    Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents. Particularly, when I need any flash content. It freezes up so that the only option will be to force quit the firefox.

    I've noticed the crashing increasing with the newer versions. The worst thing is when I'm writing a long email and then go to a page with flash and ff locks up and then crashes. I use IE now for most flash content or mission critical emailing but IE's interface is poorly laid out so I don't like it. I've tried FF with the plugin container and without it and it crashes either way (more often without the container). I use adblock and firebug. I wonder if ppl experiencing this prob are using those plugins too.

  • Loading Flash content using loadMedia??? Or else??? Has to be XHTML 1.0 Strict and WAG valid

    I have a new project into which i have to insert SWF into an HTML page using other way that the standard Abobe way to do it.
    I know about Flash Satay but i have 300s Flash files to insert and dont want to reopen each of them.
    My HTML pages have to W3C comply and as you know, the <classic id> or <embed> tag isnt valid regarding XHTML 1.0 Strict.
    Client, who insists that his media be accessible to EVERYBODY, suggested using
    "javascript:loadMedia('flashContainer','flv/v01.flv', '', '', 'fra', '','','', 'false');"><img src="images/flashFr.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
    where loadMedia is a function with these parameters
    <!-- Parameters for loadMedia function
    loadMedia('mediacontainer', '<file>', '<caption>', '<image>', '<lang>', '<playId>', '<height>', '<width>', '<autostart>' )
    - mediacontainer - /* container that holds the player */
    - file - /* Specifies the location of the file to play. */ (.flv)
    - caption - /* Specifies the location of the xml-based captions file using the SMIL Timed Text format. */

    - height - /* Specifies the window height of the control. */
    - width - /* Specifies the window width of the control. */
    - autostart - /* AutoStart the loaded clip */
    -->
    Do you know about that? Can you help? Do you know any other way to insert Flash content with respect to:
    - Javascript on/off valid
    - XHTML 1.0 Strict valid
    - WAG valid.

    I am VERY concerned with the fact that my pages are not being properly validated and displayed.
    I have created two different sites using iWeb '08 and while I am satisfied with the ease of use, I am concerned that my sites are not being displayed correctly... in fact, the other day my friend who is a Mac whiz and who hosts my business website on his server... tried to visit the site that I created using iWeb '08 and had published to my .Mac account... it caused his browser to flat out crash! He said he hasn't seen anything like that in years!
    Here is the site I have begun to build http://www.mcleanmonowheel.com
    If you paste this url into http://validator.w3.org/ a slew of errors pop up.
    Is this the norm with iWeb or have I done something wrong on my end???

  • Examples of using lightbox to display Flash content (swf)?

    I want to use lightbox to display Flash video player.  I would like to have lightbox load a page that has SWFObject code for displaying the Flash content.  This page with the Flash content and SWFObject will have certain paramters and vars.  Does anyone know of an example or tutoral for doing this?
    Thanks!

    instead of using Lightbox, try using Fancy-Box:

    Having the same problem with our flash based design tool. For now we're recommending that our users use IE as it prints the flash objects fine. Would prefer to use Firefox, but that won't be an option until flash objects can be printed again (as they used to be).

    Thanks.

    Hello, thank you for all these informations.
    Right now my graphic card current Bios Version is 80.04.00.2F (P2004.0010). Is it the good one ?
    I've found out yesterday evening about the GPT Drive, when I saw it on my laptop which works fine with UEFI fastboot mode.
    For the moment the main drive on my desktop is MBR formated SSD.
    Is it safe to clone the MBR SSD Drive to another GPT formated SSD Drive ?
    In my Partition soft I saw that it can convert MBR Drives to GPT without data loss. Could this work ?
    Thanks for reading me.

  • Windows 8 freezes while I try to watch online Flash content and running Audition CS6

    I recently bought a online introduction course to Auditon CS6 on Vimeo.com
    While I have a setup where I put the lecture on one screen and the program on the other I like to follow tutorials and learn how to use software.
    However this proves to be impossible for me in Audition, because for some reason my computer gets completely unresponsive after a little while of watching the lectures with Audition running.
    It never happens when Audition hasn't been launched, and I'm kind of suspecting a driver conflict, but I don't have a fancy audio card in my computer, (just built in Realtek,) and find it a bit
    odd that it wouldn't be supported as it is some of the most common audio setups around. As far as I know the system runs stable with Audition running and no Flash content started as well.
    This has happened for the last couple of months and I've updated Flash and drivers as they roll out. Audition CS6 is downloaded with the Creative Cloud application Manager.
    Here is some general info on my computer:
    OS: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit.
    Motherboard: eVGA x58 Classified (Tried with stock BIOS and also updated to new BIOS)
    Audio Card: Realtek (on motherboard)
    Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 Ti
    The system storage device is a SSD (Firmware recently updated due to BSODs apearing, and seems to be resolved.)
    I do believe that this might not be a Audition issue, but rather a issue with Flash. However Audition + Flash reproduces this problem faster than anything else I can remember this happening while
    using other 3rd party software while playing Flash. (Not exactly the type of software.) I have a suspicion that it is something that occurs if Flash and other programs is paging/wiring/reading the SSD...
    I can't remember this happening with Photoshop or other Adobe software, and so I'm also curious to how different Audition runs "under the hood" so to speak. What is it constantly checking
    that could lead to a hardware conflict.

    A month ago I uninstalled AVG Internet security from my computer making it a lot less potent to BSODs in general, (can't reacall having any.) So today I thought I'd try to learn some more Audition. I could Sit with it for a good while just playing around with recordings and settings and my system didn't react weirdly at all. So the next step was of course to try and load some of the Udemy lectures I had waiting.
    As the video was buffering I turned away from the computer for a while, but when I came back it had completely froze up again... I don't think I've ever had a BSOD in this context either, instead of going into BSOD the computer just stops responding completely.
    (I'm using the latest version of Flash, tried with both Firefox and Chrome.)
    I'm thinking this is a very niche bug and I can't seem to se that it can be anything but a conflict with Flash. Weither it's a memory leek or what ever it is.
    I can use Audition fine on my computer it seems, as long as I never start a browser in risk of loading a Flash application, (which would be fine if I was avid, but I need some lectures to get started.)
    Nothing really seems to be overloaded (RAM/CPU) before the freeze ocurs either.
    I  don't really know where or how to adress this to the Flash Player forum/community, (or if there is one.)
    Thanks.

  • Flash content flashing and crashing mac

    Hello,
    Since the latest FF and Flash update (37 and 17) I can't watch any videos or flash content - like (annoying ad) banners. Everything literally FLASHES. Like a strobe light. Then videos get stuck, the cursor jumps/freezes, sound stutters and eventually mac crashes (panic). The fans are constantly hyperventilating but nothing weird is running in activity monitor.
    I have:
    * Uninstalled and reinstalled flash; same for Firefox; cleaned flash cache - nothing
    * I only have flash, java and QuickTime plugins installed
    * Downgraded flash to previous version (16) - better, no flashes, but still stutters and crashes after watching video for 10-15 minutes most (sometimes not even that)
    * Tried to watch using VPN but after a while graphics and sound go crazy
    * Decided to upgrade again to flash 17. Now it flashes again and I can't watch videos for even 1 minute.
    * Tried the about:config media.mediasource.enabled (change to true); dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable-protected-mode (change to false); Firefox "get info" open with 32-bit mode; - nothing worked
    What can I do? Any idea?
    Thanks

    mms.cfg = Flash Player
    Go to your plugins page. Set everything video to '''Ask.'''
    You could try disabling Flash plugin's protected mode. The protected mode feature of the Flash player plugin has security benefits, but seems to have compatibility issues on some systems. There is a new hidden setting for this:
    (A) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (B) In the search box above the list, type or paste flash and pause while the list is filtered
    (C) Double-click the dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable-protected-mode preference to switch its value from false to true.
    This might not take effect until all Flash has been unloaded for a few minutes, or you close Firefox.
    1) Enter the config by typing about:config in the address bar.
    2) Enter media.mediasource.webm.enabled and press enter.
    3) Right click on it and change to true, for some reason it is set as "false" which makes MSE & WebM VP9 not work properly.
    4) Visit: https://www.youtube.com/html5 and check that everything is OK.
    5) Try to watch a video. It should work now.

  • Flash content freezing my system!

    Hey there,
    I've been having an issue with Flash content for the past three weeks now, I've tried just about anything and I'm becoming desperate. I've conducted a wide variety of tests on the various components in my build, but I'm still no closer to discovering what the issue may be.
    The Issue
    Occasionally, when watching Flash content, my computer will freeze and I'll lose all control over the mouse and keyboard. It sounds like the computer is about to blue screen (looping audio), but it doesn't - it just hangs on the same image for anywhere between 15 seconds to 2 minutes. Sometimes, I need to hard restart my system in order to use the computer again.
    This will typically happen when Flash content is played full-screen on websites like YouTube and Twitch.tv, and on resolutions higher than 480p - but I have experienced (less frequent) crashes when the content is not full-screen, at 360p. It just seems to be video that causes the problem, as I've yet to have any issues with websites that present an alternative form of Flash content.
    Hardware:
    Processor: Intel i5-2500K @ 3.30GHz
    Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 1280MB
    Motherboard: ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
    Memory: Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB
    PSU: Cooler Master Silent Pro Modular 700W
    Nothing is overclocked.
    I’ve uploaded my DxDiag here.
    What have I done to try and diagnose the problem?
    Enabled and disabled hardware acceleration.
    Updated to latest graphics card drivers, also rolled back to previous versions I’ve known to work previously with my system.
    Monitored system usage/temperatures when watching HD Flash content. Nothing out of the ordinary.
    Ran Memtestx86 for 24 hours. No errors.
    Ran Prime95 Blend for 24 hours. No errors.
    FurMark for 2 hours to test graphics card stability, things seemed fine. I have been playing Far Cry 3 continuously on high settings for the past few days with zero instability.
    I’ve tried downloading older versions of Flash, and using different browsers.  No change.
    When did it start?
    The issue started when I updated the BIOS for my motherboard (ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3) from v1.20 to v2.20, since then I've updated to v2.30. I would roll back to v1.20, but it’s simply not possible according to various sources I’ve read online.
    Thoughts
    I’m pretty sure my hardware is fine. All the tests I’ve done indicate my system is stable when I’m not running Flash content. I’ve been playing games, writing documents for university and browsing the internet with absolutely no issues (as long as I don’t watch any Flash content). Therefore, I suspect there are compatibility issues with Flash, my hardware setup and the latest BIOS updates from ASRock, but maybe I’ve missed something. If you’ve got any ideas PLEASE leave a reply. I’m pulling my hair out trying to figure out what’s going on here, some help would be great.
    Cheers!

  • [FP 11.4 & FF 14.0.1] Firefox hang on every page with flash-content

    Hi at all
    I have a problem with the new Flash Player, let me explain it:
    We have a windows-domain with software distribution via GPO.
    Since update to 11.4 via the msi package (11.3 was previously installed) we have in the meanwhile 3 PCs (all Win7 x32 with FF 14.0.1 and Flash 11.4) with this problem:
    - While loading a page with Flash content, the Firefox simply freezes and have to be killed together with plugin-container in order to work again.
    If this happens, ff and plugin-container have 0% cpu-usage. It freezes and does nothing...
    If I remove Flash: Web-pages are working, but without flash.
    What I've tried:
    reinstall using flash-uninstaller
    Using "normal" end-user web-installer
    Uninstall via Uninstaller and tried 11.3 again
    reinstall Firefox, both 14 and 13
    Nothing helped to bring Flash-support back.
    This happens only on FF, Internet Explorer is working fine...
    Can someone give me a hint?

    The key here will be to determine what is different between the machines that work and those that hang.  Of all the systems that fail, they are all Windows 7 32bit?
    Yep, this issue only happens on Windows 7 32-bit machines, currently 6.
    Do you have any 32bit systems that don't fail?
    Yep, the most Windows 7 32-bit machines wont fail.
    What about hardware, are there similarities here?  Attached devices/drivers?  Software that is running at the time?
    These machines are all from DELL. They all have normal hardware, nothing special. Other machines from same type does not affected. Software: All have standard software distributed via Software-distribution (GPO). Only some PCs have special software, but it is not running. No special drives, too.
    Maybe try booting Windows in safe mode to see if it still hangs?
    Good idea, indeed - I will try this.
    We're definitely interested in what's going on.  I'll ask our security and Mozilla folks to see if they have additional clues.
    Thanks!
    EDIT:
    Safe mode: Flash is working! (without disabled Protected Mode!)
    I've set msconfig now to: Custom system start and deselected the boxes to load systemservices and system start elements.
    So, now windows does a non-safe mode boot but no service or element was loaded except the drivers (right?). Flash is not working with this config!
    So, whats the difference between safe mode and normal boot with minimal configuration (see attached picture).
    Only drivers will be loaded, right? If so, I can exclude the network and graphics driver as source: graphics driver are updated right now and network was working in safe-mode.
    Any new ideas?

  • Flash content no longer playing

    Over the course of the past weekend, two things occured;
    either of which could be the cause of my problem. First, I allowed
    a relative with very little computer knowledge to use my PC
    unattended, and second, I installed a new graphics card. I didn't
    notice my new inability to play Flash content until today, so I'm
    not sure which action was the culprit. My relative says he doesn't
    think he changed anything, but he's not 100% sure.
    When I attempt to access any page with Flash content, it
    gives me the standard error that occurs if you don't have Flash
    installed. So I go through the process of installing, I get the
    confirmation of a successful install, it restarts my explorer...
    and still fails to work. The card I just put in is a Radeon X1550
    w/ 512 MB, are there any known quirks related to Flash content and
    this card, or is it more likely that my relative just hit a setting
    somewhere?

    You should run the official Active X uninstaller (download it
    from adobe.com) and then reboot your computer, and then reinstall
    the latest player. That should (hopefully) do the trick.

  • Flash content makes Firefox to freeze/crash

    Hi Team,
    I have posted my problem a few days ago as a comment (an answer) to the "flash plugin" post from "cj_gadget". But I have got no answer, probably because the "flash plugin" post was labelled as "solved".
    So I now post my problem as a new question, and since I have a Macintosh configuration while "cj_gadget" (and many others) was using a Windows PC, the solution may be different!
    After a long period without using it, my iMac (running with Mac OS X 10.6.8) has been recently updated with the most recent versions of Firefox (25.0) and Flash Player & Plugin (11.9.900.117). The result is that Firefox crashes (freezes) on every page with Flash content. For other reasons, I have to stay with Mac OS 10.6.8 without upgrading to more recent OS versions. I have looked through Firefox and Adobe Flash Player help pages, as well as through many posts on this forum without finding an effective solution.
    Following some of these posts, I have unchecked (in Firefox > Preferences > Advanced) the use of hardware graphic accelerator. Many posts advise to do the same for Flash Player with a right click on the video frame, but this is NOT possible since Firefox freezes immediately as all Flash video start automatically when the page is loaded.
    I have also checked that a HTML5 video displays correctly as for : "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTl3U6aSd2w&html5=True" while "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTl3U6aSd2w" stucks Firefox. This Firefox freezing problem is general for all pages with Flash content (that is for a large fraction of the Web!) and NOT limited to Youtube which was just used here as an example.
    Some more information : RealPlayer was not present on this computer when the problem appeared. If I disable the Flash pluging in Firefox, it does nor freeze, but of course does not display the video. Safari (version 5.1.10 - ok for Apple software update) works fine with Flash content.
    I have sent many hours on this problem without progress and would strongly appreciate any help or even better a solution !

    Hi, jpdemers , and thanks for your advices.
    I have been travelling for some time and was not in position to make any new test for about two weeks (the affected machine is an iMac at home).
    Today I have uninstalled Firefox using AppCleaner, as well as Flash Player using Adobe uninstall_flash_player_osx.dmg ; and I have then installed both of them from scratch.
    Unfortunately the problem is still there :-(
    I just notice that I forgot to reboot the iMac (twice) as you said. I believe it may not be so important, but I will repeat the cycle with the reboots included (early next year now !).
    I will keep you updated on the issue, and I hope I will not have to reinstall the system. I have the install discs, but this may be an heavy burden...
    In the meanwhile, I wish you an happy new year !

  • Flash content hard crashes computer, no matter what I do

    I have gone to the end of the earth to find a solution to this problem and I cannot figure it out.
    I've tried older video drivers(nvidia, gtx460), I've tried newest, a little older.
    I've tried as many different versions of Flash player I could find
    Both combinations of flash player and video driver have been interchanged with more combinations than a Yahtzee dice game.
    Computer build is less than a year old.
    This crash was happening for a couple weeks very intermittently, then it got worse, then one of the lockups CAUSED BY FLASH to caused my operating system to become corrupt. THEN, even after a full format and reinstall, FLASH STILL CRASHED MY COMPUTER.
    Every single piece of computer hardware has been stress tested and temperature monitored.
    New PSU was installed (corsair hx750)
    Tried a different Graphics card.
    Nothing. And I mean NOTHING. Stops my computer from hard crashing from flash content(videos mostly).
    It causes either a complete powerdown INSTANTLY, then my computer restarts. OR the other crash it does is complete LOCKUP with a horrible sounding static sound loop.
    Please help!

    All I can really say about that is that you're the only person I'm seeing complaining of these systems.  With 1.2 billion users, we'd be hearing about it if Flash was somehow magically able to cause this through normal operation (it's not).  The fact that your machine is powering off points to a hardware problem. 
    If you feel that you've exhausted your troubleshooting efforts there and are able to use the computer successfully without Flash Player installed, I'd recommend uninstalling:
    Uninstall Flash Player | Windows
    Alternatively, if you have a sound card that isn't built onto the motherboard chipsets, you might yank it and see if your system stability improves, since it sounds like you've done that with the video card already.
