Reinhard: Thanks for the detailed response about Flash history.
> Tom, it's a pity that you relied on Adobe Flash too much in the past. I didn't. I have been interested in putting a small video into one of my PowerDot slides. I finally stumbled across movie15 in TeXLive files and from there learned about media9 - and realized that it was not going to work in the future. So I'm not in trouble - I never used a movie in my slides - but everybody who uses PowerDot with movies is probably in trouble unless HTML5 (or something else) can be somehow used to replace Flash. According to https://ctan.org/pkg/media9 the author of media9 is Alexander Grahn; they were active on github only 3 weeks ago ... The readme there https://gitlab.com/agrahn/media9/-/blob/master/README.txt says > This package is based on the RichMedia Annotation, an Adobe addition to > the PDF specification. It replaces the now obsolete `movie15' package. > * Note that Adobe Reader for Linux has dropped Flash support since > * version 9.4.2. So maybe it's ok, media9 will work after Flash is gone?
