Hi,
I met some problems when trying to use Gnash. It would be highly appreciated if
someone can help answer or sort out any of the following problems.
1. Gnash 0.83 was installed on my system (Ubuntu). But I cannot open
Youtube.com video files on Firefox. Is it possibly the problem of Youtube's new
player (called watch.swf) which is SWF9? I cannot open any other video files
from the video sharing websites whose player is SWF8 or SWF9. But I can open
those from www.lulu.tv, whose player is SWF7, with Gnash plug-in. In addition,
the Youtube.com video files can be opened through Gnash standalone application
successfully.
2. I am wondering if Gnash standalone application can open a flv file locally
without swf player. (e.g. gnash ./some_video.flv). When I run it, it always
fails with the reports:
10312:3063994976] 12:01:00 SECURITY: Checking security of URL
'file:///home/user1/prj/gnash
/build/bin/get_video.flv'
10312:3063994976] 12:01:00 SECURITY: Load of file

10312:3063994976] 12:01:00 ERROR: unknown file type (unknown)

'file:///home/user1/prj/gnash/build/bin/get_video.flv'
Could not load movie './get_video.flv'
Would it be possible to find a way to play flv files locally without using swf
player?
3. The SWF files of SWF8 and/or SWF9 opened through Gnash 0.8.3 can always
partially work, or even not work at all. I am wondering to what extent Gnash
0.83 supports SWF8 and SWF9 now. It seems to me only a little(20%) portion SWF8
and SWF9 can work.
Thanks in advance.
Charles
