Flash failing with videos on youtube

2013-06-16 Thread Jerry
I saw the answer to this a while back, but I cannot find it now.

After working fine for quite a while, this problem has started. When
attempting to play videos on youtube, I am greeted with a message
that states Adobe Flash Player is Required for Video Playback? It
then offers me a link to the site; obviously though that link is
useless in FreeBSD. I double checked everything, the ports are all
up-to-date, and I ran nspluginwrapper, etcetera as specified in
Chapter 7. Desktop Applications
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html

Someone else had a similar problem and reported it here awhile ago and
was given the solution. I am running Firefox 21.0 via the ports system
on a FreeBSD-8.3 amd64 system.

Some clips are forced to show commercials and this does not work in
HTML5 even video can be served in WebM/VP8. yesterday I was working on
a Linux machine with flash player and before EVERY movie I got nasty
commercial, this was awful, I am happy that commercials does not work
in HTML5, Vimeo is somewhat alternative but it use proprietary H.264
on the othe hand. Web multimedia is a mess, but I am happy to see
Flash come to an end :-)

You may want to try out the EMBED solution that I have found some time
ago: https://www.tomek.cedro.info/youtube-and-html5/

Best regards,
Tomek

Perhaps that should either be the default setting, I really have no
idea what else it pertains to, or clearly displayed in Chapter 7.

 Hi all,

 I have a FreeBSD 9.1 host (fully patched) with ZFS. Every day I am

 How can I detect where is the problem??

 Thanks.

 You can safely ignore this message, as it's generated by autotools
 when you are building your packages with poudriere.  See:

 Also check section 12.11.3 on this page for more details on

Many thanks Greg. Works.
