[Solved] Flash No Sound In Browser

Hi All,
Having problems getting audio from any flash video. I am currently running 64 bit arch (3.5.4-1-ARCH). I have ALSA installed and working. I listen to Amarok for radio and mplayer to watch movies.
I have my .asoundrc with this
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 0
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 0
Output of aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: CA0106 [CA0106], device 0: ca0106 [CA0106]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: CA0106 [CA0106], device 1: ca0106 [CA0106]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: CA0106 [CA0106], device 2: ca0106 [CA0106]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: CA0106 [CA0106], device 3: ca0106 [CA0106]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
In Phonon all the devices are set to the sound card and verified testing (via test button). Still sounds doesn't work with any flash application in Chromium or FF. Upon running either of them from the command line I don't see any error.
I was afraid that another program grabbed the sound devices so I rebooted the desktop and first thing opened is FF and still no sound. YES I did make sure every thing is unmutted (fell for that in the past )
Also to add I am running Xmonad as windows manager so no Gnome or KDE desktop.
Update: Updated arch and still no change. Seems like Flash to using wrong sounds device but I don't know how else to force other than asoundrc
Any ideas?

I would really not like to install Pulse.
I can try a couple of reboot and reinstall flash plugin but it looks like they never quite fixed it nor found the cause. The problem just doesn't add up. Will post back with results.
Update: Reinstalling flash/rebooting several times didn't fix anything

Can KN3 export flash with sound?

I'm working on a presentation in KN2 and I need to export a .swf file with sound on each slide. I know I can export to Quicktime with sound, but I'm working with another company that only accepts a .swf files.
Is this fixed in KN3? Any suggestions on how to solve this in KN2?
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

ok, I just bought KN3. Opened my KN2 file that has narration on each slide. Saved it in KN3. Exported to Flash with sound.
However at the end I got a error box. "The following problems occurred while trying save document. Export Warning- A media file in slide 1 was not exported" This error occurred with all of my slides.
My audio files were recorded in Quicktime 7.0 Pro as "mov". Should the audio files be saved as a different format for Exporting to Flash?
Can "kworley" let me know the audio format that worked?

Yes, that will solve all problems and as well as your data. There are alternatives which I already mentioned here. You can search to find the answer, since it to complicate to do it again.
C6-00 with 8GB MicroSD

Email links out of Practice Fusion are not active (as they are in IE), which they say is a problem with "something lost in the communication between the Flash engine and the browser". Does anyone have experience with this?

This is a medical records system, cloud based. I use Firefox to get into the system, but any browser would work. Other than this problem, Firefox works fine (better than IE, in my opinion).
Patient demographics include their email, which is hyperlinked and should go right to Outlook (my default email program). This works in IE, but nothing happens on the click when using Firefox as the browser.
I queried Practice Fusion, which replied: In regards to your previous question about the email hyperlink in the patient information, it looks this is not something that can be fixed on our end right now. It is the web browsers' responsibility to handle these types of links, and there seems to be something lost in the communication between the Flash engine and the browser. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

See if this helps you:

39L4333DG - cannot display Flash content in web browser

Hello,
When I try to access Flash sites the web browser shows 'Missing plugin' in the frame where flash player should display the content.
Am I omitting anything?
I have installed the latest firmware: 7.1.90.34.01.1.
For a 2013 TV it is annoying not to have a full featured web browser on a SMART TV.
Is there any chance to have a full web browser in the next firmware version?
Thank you.

When I had similar problems the response from Toshiba was that the browser is only intended for limited use. My problem was not being able to access any site which required a password. Not rocket science you would think!

Modifying Flash Video Sound Track

Hi
Having a problem with my video. I'm doing a projector file,
so I'm importing the video into the library so that I don't have
any external files to deal with.
When I import the video the sound is really quiet. I've tried
bumping up the volume in iMovie and re-exporting it as a .mov file,
but when I bring it back into flash, the sound isn't coming in.
I've also tried converting the new version of the .mov to an
flv using ffmpeg, but when it comes into flash, its still not as
loud as when I play the .mov in quicktime or play the flv in
flv_viewer.
Does Flash change the volume setting when importing video? if
so, how do you get the volume back up to 100%

well,i would advice you to take a multitrack reacording by having all the instruments outs from the console outputs into your interface ,incase you want to make a mixdown later with atmosphere of the show it self ,and at the same time take main output from the mixer to your interface as well ,so u have both !:)and let logic do the rest of the job! also u can use a midi time code out from your interface to your light mixer in case you have a lioght show to be in sync with your music show...cheers.!

Activation Flash Player with AVANT Browser

Hello, can you help me for this question, please : I can't activate Flash Player with AVANT Browser.

Avant has a built in Flash blocker. You may have to disable it. Since it uses three different engines, you'll probably need to have BOTH plug-ins:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
And I'd follow the steps for IE:

although I'm sure the steps will be different for enabling it in Avant.

In Flash the sound does not play only started from the beginning. Can anyone please help?

In Flash, the sound only plays if the file is started from the beginning. The sound doesn't play if starting from anywhere other than the beginning.
This is very frustrating when trying to sync the animation with the sound as it's not possible to scroll back and forward with the sound playing. The only way the sound works is if it is started from the beginning.
If anyone can help that would be fantastic.
Thanks

Hi Jeromie,
Many thanks for your help. Here is some additional information, which may shed light on the problem.
I am using Flash Professional CC 2014.0 release, Build 14.0.0.110
The computer I'm using is then iMac running OSX version 10.9.3 Build 13D65 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
I am using Flash, not a web-based editor that leverages Flash Player.
"a direct link to the project or tool would be useful in allowing us to attempt to reproduce the problem" - Not sure how to do this, how can I add the project to the forum?
Many thanks once again for your help, let me know if you need more information.
Cheers
Michael

My computer does not load flash contents in any browser (firefox, chrome, explorer)

Hallo,
The problem is, i cant watch videos on my pc anymore on any website. There is only a white, grey or black box ( color depends on the website), where the video should be. If i swipe over it or click on it my mouse begins to shutter and the browser freezes for some secconds. i cant even right-click it to change my flash player settings.
I use the latest version of the adobe flash player and have tried re-installed it many times. The important plugins are activated, too. The problem appeared suddenly or i cant remember what could have caused it. I am out of ideas. If anyone could help me, i would be so happy.
( My system is Windows 7 64 bit)
Lukas

Did your problem get fixed?
If not, you should provide much more details where someone then may jump in.
Otherwise, there are many ways to go about this, such as, using an uninstaller to rid of any and all versions of Flash and then a fresh install of Flash. Reset the browser(s)? Delete all Cookies? Clear Cache? Did you recently install or uninstall a program that my have caused this problem? A video or graphic file problem? Hardware failure? Weak or failing Power Supply? Inside of computer super dusty? Overclocking?
I could go on... Perhaps someone will jump-in once you fill-in more details/specs of your system and setup.

Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser

Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser.
WIN 7 enterprise 32 bit / Firefox 19.0.2 /
Internal company website keeps giving attached screen shot error, and hangs the browser when error pops up.
Steps taken:
Uninstalled Adobe Flash player with the file “uninstall_flash_player.exe”
Deleted provided directory in instructions
"Copy and paste the following and click OK.
C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
Delete all the files in this folder."
Rebooted PC and reinstalled the flash player directly from “http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html”
Re launched company website and received same error.
Repeated above steps as well as uninstalled Firefox browser. Even went so far as to remove all profile information to start fresh from all profiles on the laptop with the same results.
Note: The web page will work without the flash player plugin, and my page doesn’t hang the browser. Required to open page in FireFox per company policy.

I'm sorry you're encountering this. Could you paste a few of the most recent report ID links displayed when you go to "about:crashes" in the Firefox address bar?
As for workarounds, the first thing I'd suggest is trying our 11.7 labs release which you can get here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html
If that doesn't help, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
Thanks,
Chris

Flash::media::Sound pthread problem

When i start these two thread together the application freeze.
Each thread on its own works !
#include <pthread.h>
#include <Flash++.h>
using namespace AS3::ui;
pthread_t audiothread;
pthread_t tickThread;
static var sampleDataEventListener(void *arg, var as3Args)
    flash::events::SampleDataEvent event = var(as3Args[0]);
    flash::utils::ByteArray data = event->data;
    printf("info: sampleDataEventListener write zero---\n");
     for ( unsigned int c = 0; c < 8192; c++ )
        data->writeFloat(0.0f);
    return internal::_undefined;
static void *sampleDataThreadProc(void *arg)
    printf("Create sound object\n");
    flash::media::Sound sound = flash::media::Sound::_new(internal::_null, internal::_null);
    sound->addEventListener(flash::events::SampleDataEvent::SAMPLE_DATA, Function::_new(sampleDataEventListener, NULL), false, 0, false);
    sound->play(0, 0, internal::_null);
    AS3_GoAsync();
    printf("Error: GoAsync returned!\n");
    return NULL;
** Tick thread
void *tickThreadProc(void *colorArg) {
    printf("TickThread start\n");
    int i = 0;
    while(i < 20)
        usleep(80*1000);
        printf("tick\n");
        i++;
    printf("TickThread done!!\n");
    return NULL;
** main method
int main()
    printf("init console\n");
    pthread_create(&audiothread, NULL, sampleDataThreadProc, NULL);
    pthread_create(&tickThread, NULL, tickThreadProc, NULL);
    AS3_GoAsync();
    return 0;
The application freeze with the output:
init console
Create sound object
TickThread start
tick
tick
tick
My build call is:
"$(FLASCC)/usr/bin/g++" $(BASE_CFLAGS) flash++ui.cpp -lAS3++ -lFlash++ -symbol-abc=Console.abc -pthread -O1 -swf-size=500x500 -emit-swf -o flashui.swf
My console.as can be found here: http://pastebin.com/ngkbcdYC
I tried to init the console in both ways (CModule.startAsync(this) and CModule.startBackground(this, new <String>[], new <String>[])) which doesn't make a diffrence.
I also tried to set the -swf-version=18 parameter, but it doesn't make a difference, too.
Anyone has an idea what is wrong ?
Thanks !

It may be that the calls to printf() are causing the problem. The printf() function may or may not be thread-safe or reentrant, depending on the system. Perhaps you might enable printf in only one of the threads, run it, and then enable it only in the other thread, and see what happens (easy test to make). If you are more ambitious, you could wrap the printf calls in a mutex. Generally, some folks recommend doing an explicit flush...

Audio Publish In Flash 8 Sounds Bad

Playing from the timeline in Flash 8 sounds fine but when I
publish it the audio sounds tinny and has a high pitched whine. I
published the same piece in MX with the exact same audio settings
(mono MP3 32kbps) and it sounds fine. Any suggestions?

I'm confused - you just said the only compression you are
using is MP3 compression in flash - but
also that you are not using any compression - I can't figure
out what that means.
If your sound quality is bad on publish to SWF - then there's
too much compression being applied -
if compression is disabled then it would sound like the
source file before importing.
which one is it? Compression or no compression?

Flash Plugin for N73 Browser

I have purchased N73 and am enjoying the browsing experience with N73.
But I feel that it does not have the Flash plugin for the browser. I want to know what is the default browser for Nokia N73 and how to get the flash plugin for that?

The default browser is "Services". The phone also has "Web", which is another (newer) browser.
Neither one supports "full" Flash as used by web designers on many sites.
The phone supports Flash-Lite 1.1, and I think with the "Services" browser it might work on web sites with embdedded Flash-Lite 1.1 compatible content, too. Never tried it myself (not that many web sites that support Flash-Lite anyway; I don't know of any).
There is also no separately downloadable/installable "full" Flash plugin available, I'm afraid. You could always ask Adobe to make one, if they think it is possible.
You can, of course, also ask the web site owners/developers for a more mobile friendly site that doesn't use PC-only technologies.
