 FYI it works fine for me on Linux with Firefox 2.0.0.3 and Shockwave
 Flash 9.0 r31.

Well, this one had me scratching my head, but finally I figured it out.
I went to Adobe's 'Flash test page'
(http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/) and it told me my Flash was
7.0.61, which I found pretty odd, given that Firefox was saying it's
9.0.31.  After a little digging, I found the older version of Flash was
sitting in ~/.mozilla/plugins.  For some reason, it was the one running,
even though Firefox was *saying* it had version 9.0.31 (which is in
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins).

After removing the older plugin, things are fine : the skin works as
intended.  Sorry about bugging the forum about it.

 It's weird.

Indeed! ;)

 
 I'm assuming other Flash content is working for you, and you don't have
 some sort of Flash blocking plug-in at work.
 

Right.  Youtube works fine, for example, and others as well.

 
 Could you try going directly to the address of the .swf file?
 I think that would be http://localhost:9000/slimfx/html/slimfx.swf
 

This produces a blank white page, with the following Page Info:


Code:


  slimfx.swf (application/x-shockwave-flash Object):
  Address: http://localhost:9000/slimfx/html/slimfx.swf
  Type: application/x-shockwave-flash
  Render Mode: Quirks mode
  Cache Source: Not cached
  Encoding: ISO-8859-1
  Size: Unknown
  [...]



Further more, if I look under the Media tab (still in the Page Info
panel), I see:


Code:


  Address: http://localhost:9000/slimfx/html/slimfx.swf
  [...]
  Type: application/x-shockwave-flash
  Cache Source: Not cached
  [...]
  *Specified Dimentions: 0px × 0px*



Notice the last line - could that be the problem? BTW, I also restarted
the browser and cleared the cache - no difference.

 
 Incidentally, if the CLI is disabled or blocked by firewall, you should
 still see the skin load up...just without the data.

OK.  I didn't mention it, but I can telnet localhost 9090 without any
problem (though I don't know how to issue CLI commands).  I don't think
the CLI is the culprit here.  More likely some Flash/Firefox/Linux
quirk...  I wonder if anyone else has used this skin with a Linux
browser and the latest Flash?  Might be possible to try using a
Live-CD. Knoppix and 'these instructions'
(http://linuxactivist.blogspot.com/2007/02/put-little-flash-in-it-adding-flash.html)
would seem like a good option...  Might try it myself if I find a little
time.

Thanks for your help, BTW!

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: slimfx - Flash-based Skin / Control App

2007-03-28 Thread doundounba

FWIW, I'm also getting a blank, dark grey page.  It used to work a while
back, but no longer...  Tried to re-install, to no avail.  I'm using
Firefox on Kubuntu Edgy with Slimserver running on the same box as the
browser.  Yes, the CLI plugin is enabled.  Any ideas?

Some details on my setup:

Code:


  SlimServer Version: 6.5.2 - 11684 - Debian - EN - utf8
