player? I wish to have it start full screen.
Thanks

10.1 linux standalone player

I was wondering if a standalone version of Flash Player 10.1 for linux will be released?
I know the Emmy Huang acknowledged (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/525703) standalone 10.1 will be made available with the tools, but the Flash IDE is not made for linux.
If indeed it will be released will it be available at the same time as the standalone versions for Windows and Mac OSX?

Linux standalone Flash Player 10.1 was released on 06/10/2010 and can be found at http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html.

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.

Standalone player (projector) for Linux 64?

I'm looking for a standalone player (projector) that will run on 64 bit linux (specifically ubuntu 11.04). There was a projector included w/ v10 but it appears to be 32 bit only. Is there or will there be a standalone player for linux 64? I need this to run automated tests (FLEX SDK w/ TeamCity) on a headless box.
Thanks!
Jerry

i am looking for this too, any ideas?

How do you create linux flash player crash log?

I saw the post on Adobe about how to create crash logs on Windows XP & Vista (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/408/kb408620.html#configure) but do not see any way to do this on Mac OSX or Linux distros. Also will the debug standalone flash players create crash logs?
Is it possible to create crash logs for flashplayer using OSX or linux? If so can someone provide the instructions?
Thanks,
Sean

My swf is crashing in XP too but can you only generate a crash log from the IE plugin (active-x control) or can the standalone player generate a crash log?
Thanks for replying about crash logs on linux.
Thanks,
Sean

Adobe: No Linux Flash Player Till 2007

Adobe: No Linux Flash Player Till 2007
By Stacy Cowley, CRN
2:25 PM EDT Fri. Sep. 01, 2006
Impatient Linux users will have to wait till the end of the
year for even a
preview release of Adobe's Flash Player 9.
The company's lead Flash for Linux engineer, Mike Melanson ,
reported this
week in his blog that Adobe won't release any alpha versions
of its Flash
port, holding out instead for a full-featured beta scheduled
for release
sometime late this year.
Adobe recently released a major Flash overhaul, version 9,
for Windows and
Macintosh clients. For Linux users, the release lengthened
the Flash gap
between them and other users: Adobe skipped Flash Player 8
for Linux and
hasn't released a Linux update since mid-2004. Because Flash
is not fully
backward-compatible, Web content developed for the newer
Flash players often
won't run in version 7, the most current Linux version.
Adobe's market
research shows that 86 percent of U.S. computer users are
able to view Flash
8 content.
"I have to question a cross-platform strategy that has a bias
against one
platform," RedMonk analyst Stephen O'Grady, a Linux user,
gripped in his
blog. The lack of a modern Flash player leaves him unable to
view content on
a number of Web sites, including major destinations like
ESPN.com.
An Adobe spokesman said the company expects a full release of
Flash Player 9
for Linux in early 2007. Because of the "short" cycle between
Flash Player 8
and 9 -- ten months -- Adobe opted to skip version 8 for
Linux and move
directly to version 9, he said.
Melanson's blog tracks the day-to-day progress and decisions
Adobe is making
on Flash for Linux. A full-time Linux user since 1999,
Melanson shares the
frustration of his comrades about Adobe's Linux lag.
"In September, 2005, I happened [across a blog that]
mentioned in passing
that Macromedia was looking for someone to port Flash Player
to Linux. I
applied for the job and now here I am," he posted.
"When I started at Adobe, I found out that there is a shadow
cabal of
engineers that very much want to see the current Flash Player
run on Linux,
and would even try their hand with the current codebase from
time to time.
But there are only so many hacking hours in the day."

> It sounds to like Adobe are using outdated development
practices.
> The kinds of systems multiplatform developers use these
days
That's the point .. 'these days'.
Much of the problem is older code, must be over a decade old
now) which was
not well written. That is not an uncommon occurence in
products that have
such a long existence as flash player. Supported platforms,
development
techniques, developer guidelines, management etc all change
over the years
and things that seemed 'a good idea at the time' end up
becoming a problem.
In hindsight there would be many things that should have been
done
differently in the past .. but without a working time-machine
that cannot be
fixed, without an enormous investment in development to
rewrite the code
base in a manner that can be more easily ported .. which is
what is
happening.
Also the low level optimisations required for such
cpu-intense real-time
graphic processing are difficult to port, as they rely on
optimised assembly
code for different cpus and chipsets
And further there is the issue of different operating systems
and libraries
to link against on different platforms.
> nightly/daily automated builds
Anyone who thinks supporting new platforms its just a matter
of re-building
or doing daily builds is naive. There is no indication that
Adboe does not
make use of these practices. But continuous integration and
nightly builds
are only tools to maintain a port once it is done .. it
doesn't help you DO
the port in the first place.
> From a marketing point of view you want a simultaneous
release on all
> platforms
I'm sure Adobe DO want simulataneous release .. if it were
possible. But
that is not possible if the software is not ported to all the
platforms.
With it ported to the platforms the vast majority of people
use (windows and
mac) it makes sense to release the newer versions that are
required in order
to release other major revenue-earning products like Flex.
That is a valid
and sound marketting and financial decision.

You simply cannot get the performance demanded using
intrinsics.

It may be worth your while reading the blogs by the adobe
developers where
they discuss the issues and get feedback from people such as
yourself.

that the customer

Exactly .. so MM/Adobe got the player out as quickly as
possible for the
majority of their customers. Making EVERYONE have to wait
while the player
was ported to all the other minority platforms would NOT have
been good for
the majority.
As they say .. you can't please all the people all the time.
You have to
pick you battles.
> In particular where websites are concerned you want to
get access
> to as many users as possible.
Exactly .. and FlashPlayer penetration and usage stats reveal
that it IS
availble to the vast majority of users and moreso than most
other
multi-media technologies

Have you even looked at all the figures (which you don't seem
to believe
anyway) .. its worldwide and broken down into regions.

Its only significant when you are part of it :) The vast
majority of
people, and those with the money to spend, are using Windows
and Mac.
That's where the customer base is.

I'm sure they won't .. which is why they are still activly
porting to other
platforms.
I would much rather see them take the time to do it right,
rather than let
quality slip in order to rush out a half-done product to
satisfy the demands
of the few.

How can i test my web applications SWF in the standalone player?

I have been using flash builder for a bit, and i love it!, but i don't want to test webb applications in my browser, i want to be able to launch them in the standalone player or debugger. After numberous google searches, it seems my flash builder IDE has something wrong with it, ( Even after re-installing it ) because when i try to make a new launch configuration, it doesn't have a field to accept a run or debug path. only a path for the html file used in the browser. This conflicts with all of the adobe help posts . I'm stuck here. can anyone help? thanks.

I would avoid using <center> tags, they're deprecated (http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_center.asp)
instead I would do something like
<div style="margin: 0px auto 0px auto; width: 800px;"></div>
put your content inside that div and it should be centered. Set the width to whatever you want.

How to customize title of standalone player?

I have a small Flex based calculator that I need to publish
as a standalone .exe
I open the SWF in the standalone player, and File > Create
Projector.
I can rename the file, but the title of the player window and
the tab on the windows taskbar says "Adobe Flash Player 9".
Is there any way to generate the projector and have the
titile be sometthing different? It makes sense, since the player is
running, that it identifies itself, but I was wondering (for
application distribution) if there is any way to change it somehow.
Thanks!

Linux Flash Player 10.2 Projector points to 10.1

Hi!
When I go to http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html and go to download the Linux Flash Player 10.2 Projector, the downloaded flashplayer_10_sa.tar.gz file, contains the projector 10.1 which has a date of October 22, 2010.

Wizard_13-
You can get the new 10.2 linux Projector and debug Projector in the 10.2 archive located at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
Just download the 'Release and Content Debugger' archive for 10.2.152.26 with a date of 2/8/2011. Once you unzip/uncompress the archive you navigate to the linux folder and retrieve either release or debug Projector.

Will there be a 'Pepper' Linux Flash Player available from Google for versions after 11.2?

Adobe has stated that:
"For Flash Player releases after 11.2, the Flash Player browser plugin for Linux will only be available via the “Pepper” API as part of the Google Chrome browser distribution and will no longer be available as a direct download from Adobe. "
To me this sounds like going forward, after 11.2, all Linux Flash Players will be released by Google as part of Chrome using Pepper and not by Adobe - but that there will be Linux Flash Players after 11.2, its just that they are only available in Chrome. However most people in the community seem to have interpreted this to mean 11.2 is the last Linux Flash Player ever other than 5 years of security updates from Adobe. Could an Adobe employee please clarify? Will there be Linux Flash Players, via Pepper and Chrome, for 11.3, 11.4. ...12 and so on? This is crutially important for those using the Flash Player within the embeded Linux market.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Which version of Flash Player do you have in a specific browser which is causing problems? http://tinyurl.com/fpversion

Unable to launch swf in standalone player

I'm unable to launch swf's with the standalone player from
within flexbuilder, it will always use the browser.
I've unchecked the option 'Generate HTML wrapper file' from
the 'Actionscript Compliler' settings menu and I've tried to force
it to use the debug player to the best of my knowledge.
I'm on OSX 10.5.1 ( macbook ) and using FlexBuilder 3 beta3.
I've done two reinstalls of the OS, and the problem still comes up.
I've installed FlexBuilder first and then Flash CS3. I've prayed to
the internet search engines with no sign of hope, so please
adobe... you're my only hope :)

Hi toknee,
There was a bug related to this problem. The next FB release
should have the fix.

Non-Debug version of standalone player?

Both Flex Builder and the SDK include the debug version of
the standalone flash 9 player. How to I get the release (non-debug)
version of the standalone player for Windows? Does it exist?
I see a place to download the release version of the
standalone player for OSX but not for Windows.
Thanks

And the answer is...
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_Flash_Player_9_Acti veX.zip
(Until the link breaks some day...) Adobe really hid this gem
well as far as I can tell, buried in the flash install trouble
FAQs. But whatever, happy now.

Files not bundled with standalone player

When creating a Mac projector file from Flash CS4, I'm only getting the standalone player app (13MB) not the project files bundled together. Before I encountered this problem, the final projector files were around 25MB. I've reinstalled Flash and am still having the problem.

What keeps you from crossgrading if you've got other FCS apps?

Need third party standalone player

Can anyone recommend a third-party Flash standalone player
which will play .swf's? I need to have my content play NOT via a
browser and I do not wish to publish as a self-contained file. This
is intended for my co-workers who do not have the Flash source
software installed.
Any suggestions?

i did a google search for "flash stand alone player" and

Change standalone player version in .exe?

I need to publish an .exe with Flash Player 9 embedded as the standalone player. I have CS4, which embeds Flash Player 10. Is there a way to change the standalone player to version 9 without using CS3 to export the .exe?
I have attached a .jpg displaying visually what I need.
Thank you for anyone who can provide assistance!
- ME

After several days of putting things together, I have successfully gotten CS4 to export different standalone player versions. Here are the steps:
1.) Go to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and download old debug versions
2.) Navigate to Flash folder, rename Flash 10 player to "FlashPlayer2" and paste, in my case, version 9r45, rename as "FlashPlayer"
3.) Relaunch Flash CS4, export as .exe, and it exported as version 9r45... now they interchange easily
All of this was necessary because of the FullScreen bug in v9r115 and above to v10. I went back to 9r45, changed the casing of the string values, and it worked perfectly.
Hopefully this will help others in the future.
