I'm trying to diagnose a weird problem ... maybe someone has an idea where to start. I'm having a problem with flash videos. The video part displays as if the fast-forward button is being held down; audio sounds correct.
I'm thinking "synchronization error" (duh!) but I'm not sure how to start to diagnose the issue. I'm running OpenSUSE 11.4 x64, and the problem shows up in both chrome and opera.
I just lost flash sound on my openSUSE 11.2 x86_64 desktop. I'm using the built-in HDA Intel audio, and I have sound in all other appliations (Amarok, mplayer, Minitube, ect) but not in Flash (I've tried Firefox and rekonq; no dice). I've never had issue with Flash sound before (hough I know many have) and I can't seem to find anything recent or relevant to my issue (most of the problems reference pulseaudio, which I, thankfully, do not have, or are for older versions of Flash).
I'd like to know where to start looking for this issue; it came up fairly recently (I don't use Flash all that often so I can't say when) and I have made no concious upgrades or changes that would affect it (though I do zypper dup pretty regularly). I updated to KDE 4.4 but I had Flash sound afterwards; I also tried downgrading the Flash player to 10.42 (instead of .45), but that didn't help. This issue is global (to all users on the system), so I don't think it's messed up configuration at the user level.
You need to know that these instructions work for anyone who has more than one way to play sound on the computer: For instance, I have a onboard sound card on my motherboard AND an ATI HD Video card that produces HDMI sound.
I have tried putting the PCM to full levels this has not worked. This is a fresh installation of openSUSE 11.3. I wanted to install a stable version of Linux on my friends system. All other sounds and codecs are working well, except flash in Firefox. This is not a good example. Is there a command line mixer I could check the sound levels on. Like ALSAMIXER for Gnome but for KDE.
I've modified my asound.conf as stated in the perfectsetup wiki of pulseaudio for alsa applications, but I do not get any sound in flash. (using flash 10.2, opensuse 11.4)
Code: GNU nano 2.2.6 File: /etc/asound.conf pcm.!default { type pulse hint.description "Default Audio Device" } ctl.!default {
I have two different laptops that I would like to make bootable flash drive installs for, but would then like to have at least /home on a common removable storage (either a big flash drive or USB or ethernet hard drive) to share between the two laptops (I'll only be using one laptop as a Linux box at a time). One laptop (Dell Latitude D410) is only 32 bit capable (Pentium M - I think there's a 64 bit Core 2 CPU available for the socket 479, but I don't know if the BIOS / mobo will support it). If I'm going back and forth between 32 and 64 bits, can I share /home? What else can I share - /usr or anything else?
i just installed 11.2 and i do not get any audio from flash movies (e.g. videos). (startup sound and amarok work ok). interestingly i do manage to get sound out of flash in a particular circumstance:
* i install 11.2 from the livecd using default settings. * at the end of the process i log in as a normal user * in a console as super user i run "zypper install flash-player" * flash-player and nspluginwrapper get installed (nothing else) * i start firefox and i am able to play flash movies with sound from videos * i reboot and log in as a normal user * i start firefox and now flash movies from videos play without sound
Well I have been trying to view some flash videos on the net and apparantly need to update my flash player. So I go to the Adobe page and download the YUM for Linux. It says it's installed, but I still can't view flash videos.
After a fresh installation of 11.3 KDE, I followed the Multi-media and Restricted Format Installation Guide and I also used the mmcheck to follow every advice and install packages that were recommended.I also spent a few evening this week digging everywhere I could to get sound when playing videos in Firefox without any success. I have the Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102 extension installed in Firefox. I also tested in Chrome that also had the flash plugin and I still had no sound.
flash videos fail with the "an error occurred. please try again later.". going to ..... and randomly selecting videos, it seems that any video submitted after 2008 most likely will not play. older videos play just fine. was there a format change somewhere along the line? i've searched here, but not found anything that covers this situation. there are no additional flash packages installed other than the two below.
On my office PC with Intel Core i5 x4 / 8GB RAM / Intel's in-CPU video card / Opensuse 11.4 adobe flash is very slow it is impossible to watch fullscreen ..... videos even in 480p. But on my home PC everything is just fine and CPU is AMD Athlon II 645 x3 - it is much slower... video card is ATI 5770 with AMD's proprietary drivers. May be Intel's on-CPU video card is slowing down flash video playback? Or may be i need to install other video drivers?
I have a DELL D420 without optical drive and i want to install opensuse 11.3 on it, also i don't have an external Optical drive. I want to know if it's possible to install OpenSuse 11.3 from a Flash drive or Amovible disk, and how to proceed to do that.
PS: is it a good idea to install Opensuse on dell d420: C2D ulv 1.2, 1gb ram, 60 HD ? it it'll work well.
I have downloaded the beta for Flash 10 for Linux. I unarchived the tarball and put it in my home directory. Where should I put the plugin file in order for my browsers to be able to use it?
I did install Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit at my Dell Inspiron 1721 laptop. Well I did some installations via Ubuntu software center only, and I'm not that familiar with the terminal. Hope you guys can help me with that. The first thing I need is the Flash Player to be able to visualize videos on Firefox.
I'm not shure if there is a bug related to video in this version of Ubuntu, if so I could try another one as I'm just starting to use Linux and Ubuntu and it wouldn't be a problem to restart it all if this could solve this and future problems. I've just downloaded a preview release for Flash Player with native suport for native Linux 64-bit at Adobe. it is called "Flash Player Square" and seems to be unstable, a Beta version.
I'm getting choppy playback in flash, 32bit. It's fine until I go fullscreen. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking of installing the 64bit version of opensuse. My experience of Flash at 64 bit on Ubuntu was very stable and choppy free. I'm running Core 2 Duo Processor with and ATI Radeon and 2 gig of ram.
Just got done installing openSUSE 11.3 with the fantastic support the forum brings, but now I notice there is no sound coming from Firefox (v3.6.8) with Flash v10.1. Nor do I receive the new message sound for the Facebook chat. I do have sound at start up (the start up chimes) and I do have working sound in Amarok (with glorious mp3 support, YaST2). Is there a plug in that is needed, or is there an incorrect setting?

I've been playing around with the latest RC of 11.4. Overall, it works great, but just have 1 issue. No flash videos have audio. Video works just fine. I've tried installing both the flash-player package so that it loads the official 32-bit plugin through ndiswrapper, and tried downloading the Adobe Square 64-bit plugin and installing it. Doesn't make a difference, either way I have working video but not audio. Audio itself on the laptop works with no issues, I listen to Amarok all the time on it. Laptop in question is a Dell Latitude E5500. I've also had Debian Wheezy and Kubuntu 10.10 on here, both had no issues.
i installed 11.3 with kde on my wife's computer a couple of months ago, and i am slowly trying to fix the holes in the installation. things that she "can't live without". now i am working on flash. videos and other flash videos in the browser are all jerky, with very poor playback quality as a result. the playback skips forward a couple seconds, then pauses. this appears to be exactly like a bandwidth issue - but it is not. bandwidth is fine, and allowing the vid to download completely before playing makes no difference. i uninstalled all flash stuff, then reinstalled from a standard repo selection that included packman. pretty much oldcpu's recommended list of repos. no change. i've spent hours searching and reading threads, trying to find a gold nugget. one said delete ~/.macromedia and ~/.adobe. did that. no change.
update everything. no change. reboot. no change. somebody mentioned he was having a firefox specific issue with similar symptoms. i try chrome. no change. some ppl seem to connect flash misbehavior with vid driver issues. this box has an ati onboard gpu - ati radeon xpress 200. so i spend some time looking through some threads i turned up regarding updating that - but this leads me to more searching and no answers. i don't know how to tell what driver i have installed for ati, i don't know how to find the kernel config file to see if ati has been built in, and more.
How to install Adobe Flash on my netbook. I recently installed openSUSE 11.4 which I am guessing is the newest one. I also am using Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 12. I can't seem to install it at all. First I downloaded the YUM file and tried installing it with some weird program that came with openSUSE and it is just too difficult. I definitely do not know how to use it. Then I read I should be installing the tar.gz file and so I did. Even then people have different ways of installing it. The easiest way I have seen has been the way Adobe's website tells how to install it.
Installation instructions for tar.gz 1. Click the download link to begin installation. A dialog box will appear asking you where to save the file. 2. Save the .tar.gz file to your desktop and wait for the file to download completely. 3. Unpackage the file. 4. Copy the libflashplayer.so file to the plugins folder of your browser. Refer to your browser vendor for the location of this folder. 5. To verify the plug-in is installed in your Mozilla browser, launch Mozilla and choose Help > About Plug-ins from the browser menu.
Now my problem is that when it tells me to copy "Copy the libflashplayer.so file to the plugins folder of your browser" I cannot find the "plugins" folder in my mozilla/firefox folder. Now I'm actually wondering if it's because it a Beta version of Mozilla Firefox. I'm not very good with "coding" and "commands".
I'm trying to use the most-base install of opensuse 11.4 and so i'm using the text-only interface. I looked up some guides on using the 'mount' command but I'm encountering problems. I tried doing.
mkdir /tmp/flash su mount /dev/sdb /tmp/flash
but first off, I don't even know if sdb is my flash device, there's ~60 things in my /dev/ directory, and ~10 things that look like 'sdb' but I try anyway, and I generally get an error telling me that either /dev/sdb is busy, or /tmp/flash is busy but I wanted to check here and clarify first, how do I even know which /dev/ item is my flash drive? When I plug in my flash drive, no less than 3 new entries appear in /dev/ so, I'm a little confused. What do I do?
Is there any way to prevent Flash from capturing all keyboard input? I'm really sick of not being able to ctrl+l or ctrl+tab just because I'm watching a video, and today a video froze in fullscreen mode and I couldn't even ctrl+f1 to any terminals or ctrl+backspace to kill KDE. It would be awesome to stop flash from grabbing certain key commands and pass them to the browser or OS instead.
I use openSUSE 11.4 64 bits, KDE, FireFox 5.0 for browser.Graphics card : nVidia GeForce 9500 GT.
However, when I want to see embedded movies, e.g. in my newspaper, or looking for a hotel, either I get the message : you have no flash plug-in installed, or I get a black screen with a cross in it.
Before that I tried to :
Code: sudo zypper rm pullin-flash-player flash-player nspluginwrapper followed by : Code: sudo cp ~/Downloads/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/browser-plugins/ I also followed the links indicated by FireFox for the missing plug-in which eventually resulted in :
