I have been trying for some time to be able to watch flash-video using
lightspark, but
this did not work. Now I found that it is not possible at all to watch
flash-video while
gnash and browser-plugin-gnash are installed. With Chromium for example, there
also the
adblock-plus extensions needs to be disabled in order to be able to watch video.
Gnash was never good enough to play video, no idea if the situation is going to
change,
when lightspark hits the crowd, it would be nice really.
But FSF should not be so fundamentalistic in my opinion. HTML5 video exists and
it is
better than flash, not denying this, but it is simply not accepted widely
enough yet. So
it does not seem to be a good idea yet to completely block
macromedia-flashplayer from
debian-multimedia, or is this technically necessary ?
