[SOLVED] No audio from Flash plugin

Hello,
I am having problems with the flash plugin as I get no audio when watching youtube videos. I configured the .asound profile to default to my HDMI output and the sound is working with VLC, steam and all other apps but not just flash. It does not crash so I hope it is just a configuration issue. I can watch HTML5 videos so firefox is not the issue.
How can I get the flash plugin to work so I can hear it through my HDMI audio device?

Eh, just for reference, alsa is a built-in kernel-module in default Arch Linux. There's no need to install any packages, although an audio mixer is generally nice. Even using something like OSS4, you still have ALSA, it's just disabled.
Also, if you're using systemd, you don't need to add yourself to certain groups. (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … nformation)
Also, pulseaudio will not work without something like ALSA or OSS4 to rely on. You can't have pulseaudio without a backend.

Audio from flash sources is playing in the background, even though the sources of these have been closed.

Audio from flash sources are still playing in the background after their sources have been closed; audio also starts playing when I start the browser. Closing plugin-container.exe in task manager solves this, but I do not want to do this every time I have audio in the background that should not be there. Not a good move to launch a browser where the kinks haven't been worked out. Have tried to inactivate addons etc. This problem is related to FF5, but have also happened earlier, with FF4. Solved that time by moving to Chrome instead.

Sounds that the plugin-container process isn't closing properly.<br />

Recording audio from Flash video

I'm not sure if this is in the correct section, but . . .
I would like to know how to record only the audio from Flash video. Specifically, there's a website my daughter loves which has Flash movies showing little animations with children's songs. I'd like to be able to get just the audio from those songs onto my MacBook so we don't have to go online to listen to them every time.
Thanks.

Audio from Flash CS3 Video overlapping

audio from Flash CS3 Video overlapping
help stopping the FLVPlayback instance (which has an instance
name of theVideo) when another button is clicked!
How do I stop flv playback when user clicks a navigation
button ...
Excuse me in advance for asking about a topic that may be
very popular!
I'm using the attached code to go from the main stage to one
subset of .swf files (loaded movies) and I apparently have no
problems with overlapping. Hell, the files even seem to unload
themselves correctly. Then, when I go to my second subset of .swf
files (with the exact same AS3 structure), which has a Flash Video
file (made by the FLV Playback component), I get into an
overlapping problem associated with the audio.
How can I stop, cancel, or unload the audio when the file is
clicked away from (the user selects another button on the main
stage)?
Code attached. Please let me know if anything else is needed.
Yours Sincerely,
Jntspecialty

I have tried to clean up code and do this right.
I need help referencing (storing the value in the variable
"stopsoundoverlapReq") the "flvplayback instance AFTER theVideo is
instantiated (ie, the frame that contains theVideo has rendered)"
correctly.
Also, now I need help with the name of my nav bar button's
method followed by parentheses, which should include the
appropriate method parameter.
On my main timeline, I tried to clean up the code and use:
var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");
Then for my nav bar button on this same timeline use:
any_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopsoundoverlap);
function stopsoundoverlap(event:MouseEvent):void
stopsoundoverlap.stop(stopsoundoverlapReq);
The 3 errors I get now are :
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
FLVPlayback. var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method stop through a
reference with static type Function.
stopsoundoverlap.stop(stopsoundoverlapReq);
1137: Incorrect number of arguments. Expected no more than 0.
var stopsoundoverlapReq:FLVPlayback =
stop("videopage.swf/MovieClip(ldr.content).theVideo");

Using Flex to capture audio from Flash

Hi!
I've been trying for a while to figure out how to capture audio from a flash-application (http://www.delorean.se/mixer)
and store it as a mp3-file.
Since I've studied Java for 2 years I thought I'd try and use it to capture the audio but I'm running into problems all the time,
and I've been advised to look up Flex by other Java users.
So, I got some questions:
Is Flex a good tool to use to capture audio from flash-applications and store the audio as a mp3-file?
Is Flex hard to learn (I've been working with Eclipse for a long time so the IDE shouldn't be a problem and learning another language/framework is always nice)
Any tips in general?
Any answers would make me very happy!
Thanks!

physical are closed : how will it managed the queues and overspill queues when target is not present? Also the data dictionary must reflect the primary but If you run capture, then you introduce rules that are not on primary: How ?

There was no change.
I am out of ideas to attempt, what can I do to fix it?

Okay, my sound now magically works for flash. I initially had not restarted my pc after installing the above mentioned pulseaudio packages. I didn't think it necessary, not even sure if it is the restart that fixed it, but problem solved.
Though i did change my .asound.rc from
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 0
to
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 0
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 0
Not sure if that did anything

[SOLVED] Can't get Flash plugin to work.

Hi, all.
I have done a fresh install of Arch, but am still using my previous /home partition.
I've installed mozplugger, Flash and Firefox, but the Flash plugin doesn't function.
Can anyone tell me how I can get around this?
Many thanks,
Chris.

I do not have any value in $MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH. Manually exporting from an xterm, and spawing firefox from the same xterm makes firefox realise I have plugins.
1) I have logged in/out, and rebooted multiple times after firefox's installation, and after flash installation
2) I do have, and am using bash(even to startx), /etc/profile _is_ being called. However /etc/profile does not have a $MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH variable set in it anywhere.
Is firefox package supposed to edit the /etc/profile to add this variable? Obviously setting the variable here is the solution, just curious now as to why it was a problem to begin with.
Thanks for pointing me the right direction there wonder.

QuickTime: Screen Recording with audio from Flash video?

I saw a short flash video on a website that I wanted to save. SO I tried using the new QuickTime's Screen Recording feature, but no matter what options I use (Line input or Internal microphone), I get no audio.
Is this because Flash won't allow it, or am I doing something wrong?

just figured this out myself today. you're on right track.
open system pref and go to SOUND - got to OUTPUT tab and choose soundflower (2ch) as your OUTPUT
open safari and open a new window - drag SWF file into that. it should play in the browser window. hit pause on the video.
open quicktime. go to NEW SCREEN RECORDING, and use the arrow to the right to open options. Choose sound INPUT as soundflower (2ch). do not raise the volume in the record window - keep it at lowest possible else you'll get an echo.
you are ready to roll.
so the browser will be outputting sound to soundflower, whilst the quicktime screenrecord gets input from soundflower. works like a charm. sounds great.
good luck.

No intelligible audio from Flash Player

I just upgraded to Windows 7 Pro 32bit a few weeks ago. Since then I have not been able to hear any sites that use Flash Player. I can see video just fine, but not audio. All I get is low, rumbling bass sound and scratchy, squeaky, intermittent high pitched sounds. I've tried uninstalling Flash Player 10 and reinstalling it to no avail. I would love some help on this one.

P.S.
I've tried using IE8, Firefox and Chrome (my default browser) with no success.

How to export or capture audio from Flash content?

I've downloaded a Macromedia Flash file via Safari. I'd like to capture a snippet of its audio into a standard audio file format (e.g. AIFF). How do I do this on the Mac, if possible?
I apologize if this is the "wrong" forum for this, but nothing else seemed appropriate.

Hi,
This can probably do what you are after:

Depending on the length of the clip, the demo version may be sufficient for your needs.

Block audio from Flash content

There are times when I want to load a flash content (I have Click2Flash), but I don't want its audio to load. How can I do this (if at all)? Is there any extension for Safari that does this? What about Chrome?
Of course, I'm not asking how to turn down my volume—often I have stuff playing in the background, and I want to load some Flash but not its annoying audio track. Many Flash videos/content don't have a Mute button either.

I use Audio Hijack Pro
<http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
to hijack the browser, then use the Mute button in Audio Hijack Pro. That blocks just the browser audio. If you are going to use it for just muting, it will probably continue to work even if you don't buy it.

No Audio From Flash Player

I seem to suddenly have lost all audio whenever I play a
video. In both Firefox and Internet Explorer, I can play a video,
but there is no sound. Other programs such as iTunes work fine. It
seems to be limited to just internet content.
Any suggestions?

make that four.
i get this problem too. when i install for single user only
on an x86 linux machine.
otherwise when i try to install system wide i get an invalid
error about my system install path being invalid.
/usr/lib/mozilla
which is the very example of a valid path given by the
installer script!
see my thread...

Pulseaudio + Flash Plugin - No Audio

So I am at a lost here. I can't get any audio from the flash plugin.
I know alsa is working with pulse because I can run mplayer song.mp3 -ao alsa and watch a html 5 video in firefox without an issue.
This leads me to think that flash is somehow using oss. Anyways I'm on x86_64 using the pure 64bit plugin.
Not sure what else to try...
~pyther

I had the same problem but I didn't read wiki...
Lucky to come across this thread.
lib32-alsa-plugins
Solves for me (lib32-libcanberra-pulse i had already installed...)
