Xtv website uses Flash - Please replace with HTML5 design!

Flash is buggy, outdated, and clearly so vulnerable that Firefox disables it by default in almost all versions.  It's time, please replace all need for flash with HTML5.  I tried earlier to access the xtv.comcast.net site and got the error message that Flash 15+ was required. 

What OS?
What browser?
Based on that info, there are more than likely browser settings we can recommend that will remedy the situation for you.

  • Konqueror browser for Linux has an useful CPU limitation feature for websites using Flash content. Can you add such a feature in Firefox?

    I have recently found that Konqueror browser for Linux can help user to limit cpu usage while visiting a website using flash technology by changing settings in the Flash section and adjusting the slider from VERY HIGH settings to HIGH and MEDIUM and so on. It actually works, and it does not have a direct impact on the general performance for flash player but it may generate some conflicts if other extensions such as add-blocker or click-to-flash are enabled also.
    Maybe you can add a similar setting in Firefox in the browser option section or just as an useful addon or extension.

    Sorry for being late with my reply. I've just tested that addon that you mentioned in your post ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../system-monitor/ ) , it looks like a system monitor and nothing more than that.
    As for the memory tip ( about:memory ) I agree that it can be extremely useful for users that have less than 1 gb memory installed on their system. I know very little about computers but I can tell your tip for optimizing memory usage in firefox has merits.
    Me, I have another problem with cpu overload in Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera and most of the browsers with flash support enabled. Each and every time time I visit a page that features all sort of adds and gadgets based on flash technology, and each time I try to watch a video online my cpu goes all the way up to 100% and stays there until i finally decide to close the browser.
    I am running winxp and also linux on a Dell Optiplex GX260 machine with 2000 MHz cpu, 1024 Mib ram and 128 Mib video card, it is not the best computer in the world but still 2000 MHz should be enough for a limited and uneventful web experience.
    It is not as much an issue with the web browser, any browser, the whole problem is caused by funny people claiming to be deeply involved with web development, and promoting flash technology for ages instead of choosing other alternatives, more user friendly. All I am saying is that flash ruined the entire web experience making people to believe that they actually need dual-core cpu and coreduo and deepfreeze cpu and so on which is only partially true.
    I always get better results for cpu usage when watching online videos that use media player as default player and not flash player, and my cpu stays below 70% usage which is not much but still it is not 100% usage.
    Konqueror offered me a nice surprise, and I was able to limit cpu usage once I moved that slider from Very High setttings for flash player to Medium settings. I got something between 80-90% cpu usage as a result, and I was very pleased to finally see a working solution to my problem at least for linux if not for windows.
    The only other browser that I can use for windows only, which handles both flash player and cpu usage well is Kmeleon browser which is a long forgotten project but does offer nice features once you find some plugins that it needs to make it come to life again.

  • Why asm startwith with + sign? what happen add file in asm tablespace without using + sign,please explain with error no.

    Hi folks,
    I have one query why asm startwith with + sign? what happen add datafile file in table space,or add disk in disk group  without using + sign ,please explain with error no.

    hello,
    + sign is to indicate the diskgroup you intended to place datafile. this apply to all database files.
    without + sign,will be place in ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory. there will be NO error.
    see example here: without using +
    SQL> create tablespace test45 datafile 'temdg' size 10m;
    Tablespace created.
    SQL> select name from v$datafile;
    NAME
    /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/temdg
    7 rows selected.
    second example: with using + sign to specify diskgroup
    SQL> create tablespace test55 datafile '+temdg' size 10m;
    Tablespace created.
    SQL> select name from v$datafile;
    NAME
    /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/temdg

  • Not able to connect to website using Wizard, please help!

    Hello All,
    I've been trying to connect to an existing website using the Connection Wizard, but I keep getting the "Your Secure FTP (SFTP) username or password is incorrect. Please check your connection information." I am able to connect to the site using WinSCP so I know my information is correct, and I sure I'm entering the data correct so I have no idea what the problem is. I do have a @ as one of my characters of my password, maybe Contribute has an issue with special chars in the password. Does anyone know if this is true or what the resolution maybe?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -L
     

    When I have received that error, it was because the FTP user account permissions were too restrictive for Contribute.  At least with standard FTP, the user accounts needed to have access to all folders within our website.  Once that was changed, they were able to connect using the wizard.
    I hope that helps.

  • Creating eLearning Content Using Flash - Please Help

    I am tasked with creating eLearning training using Flash. I know how to create flash movies, tweens, etc. I am also pretty well versed with Dreamweaver, HTML, etc.
    But how do you create the fixed header and a footer with navigation and the navigation between 30 to 40 "pages" or "movies"? I am assuming there is some automated method to create navigation...
    We want a fixed header, fixed navigation in a footer, movie content in the center, and the ability to automatically move from "page" to page and also allow the student to click Next and Previous buttons to move from page to page.
    I would greatly appreciate a link to a tutorial or any advice on getting started.
    Thanks,
    Jack Loganbill

    Check in help under the Tutorial section for "Add motion
    tweens"
    Basically you need to import your images, convert them to
    instances like
    movie clips or graphics symbols then motion tween them to get
    them move
    and use color effect Alpha to get them to fade in.
    Check the help first and tell me how far can you get from
    there, whatever
    problem you face, post back, will help you go ahead with it.

  • Using PVCS keyword replacement with LabView

    Has anyone tried using "fixed keyword expansion" with LabView? There is feature that you can use to replace text strings in a binary file but I've not been able to make it work for a VI.

    I don't think that is going to work. PVCS has no way to know about the
    offsets and size fields located in a given VI. I'm not familiar with
    the option you are asking about, but my suspicion is that it is
    specifically designed for a particular resource format or EXE format.
    If you are looking for a solution to translate strings in a VI, there
    are menu items under Tools>Advanced for Exporting and Importing strings.
    The file format is pretty readable for hand translating, and pretty
    easy to parse if you want to extract the strings to another form,
    translate, an
    d rebuild.

  • How to use flash media server with cisco show n share live event module?

    hello all
    Is it  possible to use flash media server in show n share (non dme)live event ?  i 've configured flash media server, can receive  multicast streams, bu i have no idea what to write in video url fild in the live event basic setup.

    Hi Temur,
    You should be able to stream from a Flash Media Server.
    The URL should look like this:
    rtmp://xxx.yyy.com//flv:
    You can do some tests from a PC to get the exact URL that would suit your environment.

  • FLASH in PDF with LC Designer

    Hi there,
    i was reading all the options how to embeed a Flash into a PDF with Acrobat.
    I wonder how i can achieve this with LC Designer, or more even through a Form Fragment on a LiveCycle server
    Anybody got an idea on this ?
    thank you
    Dieter

    Hi,
    The only way that I know is to create a blank PDF in Acrobat first. Then import this PDF into LC Designer. You will not have all of the LC Designer features available to you, but you will be able to create a basic form.
    Then when you open the form again in Acrobat, the Flash Tool (from the Tools > Multimedia menu) will be available to you. 
    Thom Parker has an article here: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/2008/08/js_flash_buttons/
    The trick is getting the Flash content to communicate with the PDF/XFA content. Thom uses the external interface call to fire a function. This works well with Document Level functions in an AcroForm, but I have been unable to get it to fire a script object function in the XFA form.
    Incomplete sample here: https://acrobat.com/#d=HAp0kKvcWk7X5N52HxcXng. The colour picker is meant to change the colour of the XFA objects, but at the moment it does not call the function "xfa.form.mobileFlash.swfComms.setColour", even though you can fire this in the javascript console.
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • On My web site the adobe flash player replaced with a white box "need to install adobe flash player and Java script" both installed. My web site fine using Internet Explorer and Chrome.

    I've updated to Firefox ver 5.
    Gordon

    The FlashPlayer plugin used for Firefox is entirely separate from the one that Internet Explorer uses. You system details do not show Flash Player is installed.
    With flash player installed and enabled if you go to the Adobe website it will check that FlashPlayer works, also you will be able to download and install from there if necessary. The site page also has links to troubleshooting information. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    Javascript is not the same as Java. Javascript, which is what you need enabled at present is a feature of the firefox browser that needs enabling in order for it to handle the javscript files.
    * use '''Firefox button -> Options ->| Content| -> [] Enable Javascript'''
    * see [[Javascript]]

  • Using flash debugger player with Flex application

    I am building my first Flex app and have run into a problem that I can't figure out.  When publishing a .swf in Flash I sometimes run the debugger to generate the swf.  When I do so, I can view the swf through my browser (using the debugger version of flash player) and the exceptions that are thrown include a stack trace (complete with line numbers) of any error that occurred.  I have tried running the debug compiled version of my swf from Flex and it does not show the line numbers.
    Is there some way to do this?  I have several thousand lines and the location of the error is tough to figure out becuase it is an instance where I am casting an event to the wrong type through my typed params for a function.  So, for example, I am dispatching a MouseEvent but the listener function has a typed parameter of Event instead.
    Can someone please point me in the right direction?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the feedback.  Our debugger documentation definitely needs to be refreshed.  The PPAPI debugger on Chrome is even more complex.  I blocked some time out on my calendar for Friday to try and get these revised.

  • What websites use Flash and Shockwave

    I have Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX, Plugin and Shockwave 11. What websites need these installed. For example, I think youTube needs the Plugin but I don't think it needs the ActiveX. Please list some popular sites and which parts of those sites need such programs.

    You are confused; Internet Explorer and AOL need the ActiveX, Firefox and other browsers need the plugin.
    Sites with Shockwave content need the Shockwave Player, sites with Flash content need the Flash Player.

  • Keep active a secure website using Flash.

    I am developing Flash training programs for my company. The
    programs are called from the companies secure website. While the
    Flash training programs are running in their own window, the secure
    website in the background closes down due to lack of activity. When
    I change menus in Flash you have to relogin to the companies site.
    My question:
    Can I, in Flash, simulate a mouse click to the hosting
    webpage in order to keep it active? Or is there another way? Just
    calling another program from the same directory does not reset the
    websites internal timer.
    Thanks,

    Thanks all for your interest,
    We are constrained by the fact that the IT folks won't,
    don't, or can't help. Our current training program calls swf files
    and even .exe files. This does not reset the timer. I have tried
    using a JavaScript to open a new window containing a sef or ,exe
    file with almost no content. Not quiet sure how to proceed.
    How could I easily set it up so that Flash only updated the
    timeout based on the presence of user activity in the Flash file
    itself?

  • Using Flash Player 11 with iSky?

    Hi, I have a windows7 64-bit operating system. Have never been able to use the Flash Player 11 for iSky with Windows Internet Explorer, but it worked using Google Chrome, up until a huge Windows update a couple of days ago.
    Now it isn't working at all with any browser, so I thought it wise to get advice from this forum as the Sky support is useless.
    Have attached a shot of the error message that briefly pops up on the screen.
    Any ideas?

  • Problems using Flash Presentation / Slide with IE

    I have created a slideshow using the Flash presentation /
    slide component. All images are the same size. When the movie loads
    in Firefox, the slide show works fine. However in IE, the first
    image is loaded off center. The top left corner of the image is
    placed in the center of the screen. All subsequent images load
    fine. This is an intermittent problem as it does not happen all the
    time.
    Has anyone seen this problem and know of a solution.
    Thanks in advance.

    Is this Virtual Credit Card Number software a website or a stand alone application?  If stand alone, then I would recommend installing the Active X (Internet Explorer) version that you can download here:  http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions
