Licensing Standalone Flash Player.

I've searched the forum to see if this question is already
addressed. I found one or two that are close, but do not directly
apply to my question. I've read the standard distribution license
agreement for the Standalone Flash Player, but I can't interpret
"legalese" and I just want to be sure.
I want to distribute the standalone Flash Player on CD to
prospective clients to play a .swf presentation highlighting the
benefits of using my services as a real estate agent. Before you
suggest that I simply package the presentation as a Projector file,
I can't do that. The presentation will reside on the Internet. The
standalone Flash Player on the CD will play the presentation from
the Internet. That's why I can't distribute it as a Projector file.
Additionally, running the presentation in a browser window
using the Flash plug-in is not a workable solution either. So
before making an alternative solution, I've already been down those
roads. My question is very specific. The FAQ seems to say that the
standard distribution license agreement allows me to distribute the
standalone Flash Player on CD to anyone. Is that, in fact, the
case? Can I copy the standalone Flash Player to CDs to distribute
to anyone? And if so, does the standard distribution license
agreement cover it? Thanks to all.

Hi Tim,
If your SWF file is on the Internet/Web Server then call the
SWF file from a
Projector file.
i.e
loadMovie("
http://www.flashjester.com/download/examples/test.swf",1);
That way you don't need to worry about the licensing.

  • Why do I get Flicker on screen with Linux Standalone Flash Player ?

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the standalone Linux Flash player. The thing is that when I have a video playing in background and over it I make some tweens, it flickers all the time and it is an annoying flicker. It happens only on Linux Flash Player (it works on Windows Flash Player). The flicker appears when I have a video on background, only when the tween is made and on the portion of the screen where the tween is made. I have Ubuntu 9.04 installed and the latest version of standalone Flash Player (from 2/24/09). I've tried this on several LCD and on all it does the same. My video card has the Intel G31 Express Chipset (the drivers for the video card are the one from Ubuntu). I have generated the swf file from Flash CS3. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • Too small window size in standalone flash player in FLEX

    Hello,
    I have unchecked the option "generate html wrapper file" so I
    don't have to bother about closing the browser tab each time I make
    a small change to the code and rerun the application.
    This works fine as the standalone flash player closes when I
    terminate the application from Flex. However, the standalone flash
    player always starts in a fixed window size smaller than my
    application size so that I cannot see the whole application. So I
    have to enlarge the window size of the standalone flash player each
    time which is annoying!
    Is there a better solution?
    Maybe get Flex to close the browser tab after I terminate the
    application. I still prefer to use the standalone flash player
    during development as my application doesn't depend on the browser
    though.

  • Downloading .swf files-standalone Flash player

    I have the most recent Adobe Reader X, and I have no problem playing .swf files on a browser.  However, I am trying to download a .swf file onto my computer and play it with Adobe Reader X.
    The people on the site that has the .swf file say that I need a standalone Flash player.  What I need is a link to this standalone Flash player so I can open the .swf file without the use of my browser.
    A little more info: When I try to open the .swf file, it says:
    "Adobe Reader could not open 'FileName.swf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    I have tried to do this on Chrome and Firefox using Windows 7 and tried it on a Mac with Safari and Camino; I get the same result each time.
    Many thanks for any info, and especially the standalone Flash player, that you can give me.   If I should move this thread to the Flash Player section, just let me know.

    The standalone Flash Player (Projector) can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you'll need to make the file association manually.

  • Old standalone flash player linux

    I have some games that don't work with versions of flash
    above v7
    I know they work with v6
    I'm trying to find the standalone flash player 6
    (I think it was named GFlashPlayer)
    so far all I've been able to find is the mozilla plugin
    I've just spent 4 hours of my day off trying to find it, but
    no luck.
    anyone have ideas of where to find it?

    here's the release notes, but i still can't find the file

  • Need get a distribution license of Flash Player for Swfkit

    hi , i use swfkit 3.5 for create standlone desktop Flash
    swfkit have a Flash_player_activex version 9 that will be install if the system not reconize flash player on windows .
    but now i really need to ugrade and use version 11 of flash player
    i dont know how the swfkit company make this Flash player Activex cause it`s only 2 mB and when i run it , it`s install files on silent mode
    so when i try to replace the new version of Flash player from Adobe Website For example 11 , my desktop Autorun cant install this replaced player and Show error !!
    here is part of help in swfkit :
    The .exe files built by SWFKit requires the Flash Player to run. However, the end user' computers may have no flash player installed. The "standalone" option in SWFKit resolves this problem. If you check this option, a most current version of flash player will be packed into the output .exe files. When such a stand alone .exe file is launched and it finds that there is no flash player in system, or the flash player in system is of the older version, it will use the packed flash player.
    The flash player that will be packed into a stand alone .exe file resides in the data subfolder of the folder that SWFKit was installed into. E.g. a typical path is "c:\program files\SWFKit Pro 3\data". The file name of the flash player is "install_flash_player_active_x.exe", whose version is 9.0.16.0. If Adobe upgrades it, SWFKit will download it automatically by using the auto update feature. Another important file about the flash player is the flash_player.ini, which defines the version and file name of the flash player. If you want to use some special version of flash player, you can copy it into the folder and modify the flash_player.ini file. SWFKit will read the information of the flash player to create stand alone .exe files from the flash_player.ini file. The flash player should be an installer of the flash player that can be downloaded from Adobe after you get a distribution license.
    Because we have got a distribution license from Adobe, our distribution of the flash player is legal.
    so how can i get a distribution license for new Adobe Flash player ?? 
    i extract old flash player activex pack and i see only 2 files : Flash10b.ocx & FlashUtil10b
    i`m very confused and i really need to be update the flash player activex of this software , unfortantly swfkit company webtite is down and they not support us anymore

    Hello,
    If your distribution license is current, you can download the latest version from the distribution page, http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html.
    If your distribution license is not current, you can apply for a new license at http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html.

  • Standalone Flash Player?

    I can't seem to find the link to the standalone (read: not in
    browser) Flash Player anywhere on the site. Someone said to get the
    Flash 9 preview, but they only have that for linux now. I need the
    one for Intel Macs.
    Thanks!

    got to mozilla.com and get firefox. next time you come across
    something that requires flash it will take care of it for

  • Standalone Flash Player 10.3.181.34 for IE installer mixed up

    The standalone installer for Flash Player 10.3.181.34 for Internet Explorer is not working properly.
    On my Windows XP computer, flashplayer10_3r181_34_winax.exe is installs a new plugin version of the player instead of upgrading the existing ActiveX vesrion of the player.
    In Control Panel -> Add Remove Programs, I now see both the old ActiveX version of Flash Player and a new plugin version.  IE continues to use the old ActiveX version of the player:

    flashplayer10_3r181_34_winax.exe (3,124,384 bytes) came from
      http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.181.34_archive .zip
    through a link on http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html.
    Since then, I ran uninstall_flash_player.exe on the Windows XP computer and then re-installed the ActiveX Flash Player using http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.  That worked and IE now shows Flash Player version 10.3.181.34.  I suspect the files now under C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash are not going to be very useful.

  • Windows XP and standalone flash player

    I have a swf file created from InDesign. I want to be able to view, and interact with this swf in a standalone player. I can do this without a problem on the Mac. But, when I moved to my Windows XP computer I can't seem to make it work. I've tried to download Adobe's player, but once I install it, I can't seem to locate it to open as a standalone application. And my swf file doesn't recognize it either. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to make this work?
    Thanks for the help,
    Jonathan

    Hi, the Adobe Flash Player is not a standalone Player. It is a browser plug-in. There was a discussion this past week about it, so you might want to read the subjects of some of the threads. I think perhaps on page 2 or 3.
    Did you check any other Adobe forums? Perhaps the Flash Forum may have info on what you want to do.
    Also, when you first open your thread, look to the right side for "More like This".
    Thanks,

  • License for Flash Player on Windows Embedded

    We are developing an app for Windows Embedded Standard 2009 (on an HP Thin Client) and would like to install Flash
    Player on this device. Is this possible and/or allowed? If not how do we get a license to do this?

    Hi Ani,
    I can't see anywhere in the Adobe Flash Player FAQ that you linked that answers my question, can you point it out for me?
    I'm not asking for the ability to distribute (I'm happy for the end user to install the latest flash player on the system themselves), and the distribution summary says:
    Usage of Adobe Web Players is only permitted for supported platforms; usage rights on non-PC devices or embedded systems are not granted by this license.
    which seems to disqualify my particular use case that I am asking about.

  • MAC / PC flash game issues through standalone flash player

    I had some flash games built for new site. They were built on a PC, and play perfectly through the latest version of flash player, but jump and loop continuously through flash player on mac. Cannot figure out the reason why this is happening. Anyone come across this before?

    we have loaded shockwave Flash NP-PPC plugIn version 7.0R69
    into the plug ins folder of Internet Explorer 5
    We are still having the same problem which is that we cannot
    view a web page which contains a flash movie with some video
    embedded.
    We see the rest of the animation and hear the sound on the
    movie, but can't see the movie.
    When I published the Flash movie I set it to play with Flash
    Player 6 and up.
    The flash movie (on the web page) plays fine on our other OSX
    Macs and PC's.
    thanks

  • Standalone Flash Player Crashes On bitmapData.hitTest()

    Help.
    The Flash game "Flak Cannon" from my book, The Essential Guide To Flash Games, dies in the latest 10.1 stand alone player in CS5.  It runs perfectly fine in an HTML page, and it runs fine with pre 10.1 stand alone players, but in 10.1.52.14 it explodes.
    I logged this bug during the Flash CS5 viper beta, and I was told it was fixed.  In fact, I confirmed the fix during the beta.  However, it seems to have crept back into the player.
    I need help to do one of the following:
    1. Give readers a work around that still utilizes the bitmapData.hitTest() function, as the whole chapter is based on it (oops!)
    2. Tell readers where to download a player that works.
    3. cry.
    I've already commenced #3, but would like help achieving #1 or #2.
    Here is a link to all the files for the game:

  • How to know existing Adobe Flash Player license status-.

    how to know existing Adobe Flash Player license status….

    There is no "license" for Flash Player as it's free. There is an End User Agreement, but you accept that BEFORE installing.
    To check installation status, rtight click ANY flash content and choose "Global Settings". Select the Advanced tab.

  • Flash Player 11.x standalone - weird fps issue

    Hey there,
    Windows 7
    Flash Player 11.1 and 11.2 - 64bits
    FlashDevelop + FlexSDK 4.5.1
    Since 2 or 3 weeks ago, when I launch my standalone Flash Player, it's often really really slow for no apparent reason. If I set my project to run at 60 fps, it will stuck between 25 and 32 fps, for maybe 30-40 seconds, then maybe it will speed up to 60 fps, even if the project is actualy emtpy - nothing at all, just an empty document class. I started noticing this when I first start playing around with the stage3D but as I said, it happens even with a blank project.
    I observed something really weird. Let say my standalone runs slow at 32 fps, then if I simply open Google Chrome besides it, then the standalone start running at 60 fps !!
    The problem is the same with FP11.1 or 11.2. It doesn't seems to happens with the browser plugin, though I would have to double-check that.
    Any help is welcome, as this problem is really annoying when developing!
    Thanks
    rb

    Having more or less exactly the same issues with Stage3D, regardless of if the flash runs in a stand alone Projector or in IE. As soon as Chrome is started the FPS goes up to 60 and closing Chrome drops it down to around 40.
    Did you or anyone else find a solution for this issue?
    Thanx!
