Quite frankly, Gnash is still so bad that it'd be inclined to remove it altogether from XO distributions. One could make a case that half-broken flash support is still better than nothing, but I think it makes us look worse than systems like iOS and Android which don't provide flash at all. Moreover, some video sites detect the presence of flash and use it instead of HTML5 . Daily Motion is one of these. > Sugar Labs has friends in the Gnash community we could ask about this, > they've been working (with some sucecss, I think) on XO 1.75 > implemetnation and of course, we do host their PO files for L10n, and > have recently upstreamed a number of completed L10ns.

Sugar Labs has friends in the Gnash community we could ask about this, they've been working (with some sucecss, I think) on XO 1.75 implemetnation and of course, we do host their PO files for L10n, and have recently upstreamed a number of completed L10ns.

It uses neither flash, nor html5: the video plays in the Totem plugin. But... only very few videos are available. Probably, only those that have been uploaded in the ogg-theora format.

Try tweaking the URL for XOs to use the olpc.dailymotion.com domain. The interface will scale itself down to make it XO-1 compatible.

I tried playing DailyMotion videos on the XO, but the flash player makes Gnash choke. So I tried it on my computer, without the adobe flash plugin installed: it attempts to start an HTML5 player, but it fails immediately with "Media Not Supported" on Firefox 7 and no explanation on Chromium 15. Moreover, there's no discoverable way to download the video file (probably it's so by design). Even if these issues were fixed, I still see some value in playing videos directly from our wiki, alongside with images and text, to create lesson plans for example. -- Bernie Innocenti Sugar Labs Infrastructure Team http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Infrastructure_Team ___ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
