I have SM 2.12 and have not had Flash installed for plugin browsers. I've been playing videos at youtube in HTML 5 HD. But I need Flash for speed tests and I get tired of having to open IE and use it. So, I installed Flash and immediately had a bunch of problems on both Fx 10ESR and SM.
The videos automatically play in HTML5 if I open a tab to youtube but with Flash installed I got error messages from Ghostery about bad scripts and SM locked up. I couldn't close the tab and finally had to use Task Manager to close SM. I had other problems on both Fx and SM with Flash installed so I finally uninstalled it and then when I opened a tab on SM to youtube the videos began to play beautifully in HTML 5 HD. There should be no conflict between Flash and HTML 5. I would like to have Flash installed for Opera so how do I stop SM and Fx from finding the plugin and installing it? They should not do that automatically but only if I choose to install Flash Plugin on SM and/or Fx. I have no other plugins for SM (except those crap ones from Microsoft that I always disable and would remove entirely if that was possible). I recall in the past killing the "master plugin" for Fx and SM to stop these browsers from automatically finding and installing plugins that I don't want on these browsers (disabling the plugins is not sufficient especially now that horrific Plugin Container wants to run TWO INSTANCES of itself on EVERY WEBPAGE VISITED REGARDLESS OF WHETHER FLASH IS USED ON THE PAGE OR NOT). But I have forgotten what the file is called and I can't find it in SM files. So, how do I stop SM and Fx from automatically installing Flash Player plugin short of uninstalling Flash Player which means it is not available for Opera? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
