OK. Thanx - that (gnash) restored YouTube to my Firefox browser,
however, CBC Radio is still not streaming in Firefox. Works fine on
Google Chrome, but not Firefox or Opera.

To: chucklebe...@shaw.ca

 My parents have the same problem on their AMD Athlon(tm) XP 
 2400+. At
 one moment (after an update I guess), the black frame (where eg. the
 Youtube video should be) changed to a white frame. But of course 
 white,black or some other colour: it didn't work :-(.
 
 Workaround that I used on my parents pc: install browser-plugin-gnash.
 At the moment everything seems to work.

[Bug 969690] [NEW] CBC radio no longer streams after yesterday's Adobe update

2012-03-30 Thread george shepherd
Public bug reported:

Adobe automatically updated yesterday March 30,   none of CBC radio's
streaming audio stations work anymore. The audio window comes up, but
nothing happens.  It might be CBC's problem they're a Windows outfit
 not very bright, but it seems to coincide with that Adobe update. Has
also affected the Chromium browser. On further investigation, my Live365
 CKUA Radio audio streams also no longer work on either browser. The
audio windows come up but nothing happens. I use Ubuntu 11.10 on a
desktop machine.

Re: [Bug 969690] Re: CBC radio no longer streams after yesterday's Adobe update

2012-03-30 Thread george shepherd
Hi Chris
The reason I reported it against Firefox is that there is a Report a Problem 
link on the Help menu. Figured that since I use Firefox to listen to CBC, that 
the Firefox people  might be interested. Trying to report something to Adobe is 
next to impossible. I reported it right away to CBC yesterday, but unless its 
happening on Windows or iPods, it will take them a while to get around to 
looking into it. Meanwhile, my old netbook still has Ubuntu 10.04 on it, so its 
now playing audio streams. Coincidently, Adobe's Flash is offering to update 
itself on the netbook. but I am declining the offer.

Meanwhile, I am going to install a fresh 10.04 on a spare hard drive, do
all the updates except Adobe's  see what happens regarding CBC
streaming audio. Then I will apply that update to see what happens
again. Is there a way to un-install a particular update  thus have the
system revert back to its pre-update condition ?

But back to your why question. It is the most obvious, most available link to 
actually getting something going when you experience problems with Ubuntu. 
Thanx for responding.
-George

 Thanks, but why report it against Firefox when you already confirmed
 Flash broke it and it happens in Chromium too? It seems that everybody
 is doing this today, and I'm just curious about why people keep 
 doing it
