Re: [ubuntu-in] PLaying Flash files in firefox without using a propreitory / closed source tool
I was always able to work flash in Ubuntu by the following: (From most effective to least) 1: Remove any flash plugin and go to a website with flash with firefox. When prompted for missing plugins, install from there. 2: sudo apt-get flashplugin-nonfree 3: Ubuntu Software Center / Add remove programs : Adobe Flash 10 The first method never failed me. Luckily. The second one is most common and I kind of think its like the third. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Does a propreitory / closed source tool include Adobe flash player? Ashutosh Rishi -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] PLaying Flash files in firefox without using a propreitory / closed source tool
I was able to play this with Flash player 10 plugin Shockwave Flash 10.0 r42.

Re: [ubuntu-in] PLaying Flash files in firefox without using a propreitory / closed source tool
Hi, I use DownloadHelper firefox plugin, (but I do need flash installed) to download the flash file and then Totem plays it just fine. However you do need flash installed, you just get DownloadHelper to start downloading it and then you close the tab. It does fix every performance/sound issue you are likely to get with flash. It *should* be possible to do the same with Gnash, but I haven't done it. -Bryan -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
