In regards to the second, I just tried it on a new clean install of 9
RC 1 and it didn't work. However it worked after I installed
flashblock. There seems to be a least one secondary flash object on
that page which prevents the video from playing. However, I will add
on rare occasion I've found a video like this and it actually will
play eventually, perhaps after hours of waiting. I think the reason
for this is that the linuxulator doesn't perfectly emulate Linux
system calls, and when you run flash that which targets these system
calls, the npviewer cannot proceed until those calls are finished. In
those cases, quite a bit of time can elapse until those faulty
syscalls end hence the very long delay before video playback.
That's just a theory, and I'm happy to be proven wrong. Or even
better, proven right and fixed. In the meantime, you now have
workarounds for both videos. I'm sure you can get the bottom of the
trouble with first video with some tenacity, as the problem must exist
in your home directory.
Workaround for only one by changing the user, and the other one just
doesn't work for any user.
It would be easier to have standalone nspluginplayer working, but it
doesn't. Do you know why it doesn't work as it used to?
Command
nspluginplayer type=application/x-shockwave-flash
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvCMN2gfyzE";
for example fails to show video for me too for all users.
