Ubuntu :: Flash-aid - Cannot Watch Any Videos Any More
Mar 24, 2011
it seems i have to update to a new flash version? i cannot watch any videos any more. i installed the flash-aid add-on in firefox. under "removal options" i see nothing until i select "expert mode". i have attached a screenshot. what do i need to select there and what are the next steps? i just upgraded to firefox 4.0, on kubuntu10.10.
I have got a new computer today, It's got most new parts in it but I installed all diffrent types of flashplayers, SMF players all that and I still can't play flash or watch videos.
I have installed flashplayer to my fedora and tried to watch videos which need flashplayer but it wont start. Its seems like my system have installed flashplayer but can't find plugin from mozilla. Tried to check if plugin exists but no. Tried to install it again but no.. same problem again.
I've got an eeepc 1101ha and have installed the latest ubuntu, 10.10, but i can't watch any videos! Besides the original player, i have installed and tried to watch videos in VLC, SMPlayer and GNOME MPlayer but it has always some kind of error. In VLC I can hear the sound. On all others the file simply doesn't work.
I cannot see any avi videos with vlc I can just hear the sound of them but, the odd part is that with totem I can see them perfectly. Can any one explain me what I am doing wrong? I got Debian Lenny Stable with Xfce4 Desktop enviroment. I tried to install ubuntu restricted extras and also I tried to install the following codecs:
yesterday i upgraded my ubuntu to 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx, and today i faced with a problem watching videos on the Internet. i already tried reinstalling the Adobe Flash Player i have in many ways... nothing helped and i actually think it isn't even related to the flash player... what can it be, and how can it be fixed?
I'm new to linux, When i try to watch videos on you tube, or anywhere, sometimes they don't work. Or they are real choppy. It certainly didn't do that when i was running windows, I know its not the internet speed.
I am using Lenny i386 and amd64, have installed flash 10 from abode but cannot watch TED videos. They are working though with other resent distros like mint, mepis, community remix F12,1. Does anybody know what codecs are needed to enable their playback? Unfortunately I could not find anything relative by searching under TED in this forum.
I've installed fedora 7 and i'm having difficulties watching videos through my media player provided and on the internet. Should I use adobe flash or something else. When I had fedora 13 there were difficulties downloading adobe flash.
I am running 10.04 on an old computer. I can watch netflix videos, but there is no sound. I tested the speakers on another computer and they work. That leaves either the sound card, or something about 10.04. How do I debug this?
Downloaded FF4. For my purposes it doesn't seem that much different from FF3. I was able to watch videos on a news website that I hadn't been able to with FF3! On FF3, with the windows theme I have, there is a nice blue tint on the top of the tab, but not on FF4.
Is there a default media player in linux such as windows media/ if so what is the name of it or can i download one that works with linux, i would like for the player to not only play music but watch videos as well.
yesterday the update manager asked to install some updates. i accepted (as usual). today i found that i couldn't watch videos on videos or some flash content.
here is a copy of the history of installations code...
I am trying to use the s video port on my presario 2800t to watch videos on my tv. I have plugged the S Video cable into the back of an RF box. So how do I get the computer to send a video signal through the s video port?
Is it normal that you can't watch YouTube videos after a fresh install? It comes with something called GNU Gnash but it doesn't work at all in Iceweasel.
I installed "flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386.rpm" manually to my system in order to let firefox enable watching animated images and video ,but even though firefox still not able to do so. I'm running RHEl 5.
Lately (in the past couple of weeks) my system has been hanging, particularly when I try to watch videos. I'm not sure why this is happening, but when I looked through my system log files I found what's on the attached file. A couple of other programs that I use frequently (xmms2d and epiphany) have similar entries, and I assumed they are related because they are typically running when the slowdowns occur. Also, my /home partition is giving some errors which may or may not be related.
I love Ubuntu so much but when my previous graphic card passed away a technicien installed on my desktop an Ati Radeon 9550, my question is what I have to do to watch smooth videos in streaming?
I have been using Fedora for a while now. When I try to watch movies or videos on the internet or offline a error message like the following: What should I do?
I've been trying to find a way to watch videos from my main desktop computer on another computer I've plugged into an HDTV. I'm such a Linux newbie that I decided to give Mythbuntu a try. It was way to complicated for what I needed, and I'm sure that some more experienced people reading my first two sentences laughed to themselves at my naivety.
What I am trying to find is simple: browsing one computer's home folder from another computer, and playing the videos therein. If there's anything like Mythvideo that requires less than half of the skill requirements, I will telepathically send love to the person that informs me of it.
The problem does occur with both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04. Whenever I watch a movie on Megavideo that uses flash, my computer runs so hot I can barely hold it and the video gets really choppy. It makes movies unbearable to watch. Either the fan isn't running at a high enough speed or maybe it needs to be replaced? please give me something...
I'm learning a foreign language. There are several online sites that have Flash video in the language I'm learning (e.g., Hulu), which is great. Unfortunately, they have English subtitles, which is (depending on who you ask) somewhere between "annoying" and "actively harmful to my learning".When I'm watching them in a window, I can just move them near the bottom of the screen, or put another window over them. That's awkward, but it kind of works.But I'd like to watch them full-screen, on my TV set. Full-screen Flash doesn't let me put any window on top of it.Is there a way to watch an online Flash video but block out part of it?
All of a sudden I couldn't watch movies on Hulu anymore, so I have just upgraded Debian from the Etch to Lenny, because I wanted to update to the newest version of Adobe flash. In Iceweasel under add-ons, it says that I have the newest (10.0 r42) version. The old one (9.0 r124) is still listed. It is listed as disabled, white version 10 is listed as enabled. I still can't watch movies on Hulu.
Still cannot watch a flash video in full screen for more than 1 minute before it freezes/hangs. Ridiculous that this bug has been around for YEARS and no one took the time to fix it for new versions.
Is it normal for the flash player in Ubuntu 10.04 to be quite slow, and unreliable? I know I'm only on a Samsung nc10 netbook, but that should be enough oompff.Seems if I have ..... open in two windows (chrome or firefox, same issue), and then close one of the windows, it crashes all flash videos. Sometimes it will even crash on its ownHere are my current plugins:Default Plug-in - Version: 1Provides functionality for installing third-party plug-ins
I used to save flash videos by going to /tmp so that i can watch them later, without having to stream (and i'm not talking about ..... or anywhere else where it's against the ToU to save videos).As many of you already know, videos are no longer saved in /tmp with flashplayer 10.2 (or they're delted immediately). I'm using Google Chrome and I've tried looking in the Cache and I've tried all kinds of things and i can't figure out how to save videos.I would really appreciate any help you guys can give me. I wouldnt mind downgrading my version of flash (actually i'd love to do that if i knew how) but chrome seems to have flash built-in or something (?) so i have no idea how to do that.
I found a script that allows me to open whatever flash video i have open in browser with vlc, but vlc won't allow me to save as or anything. The site said that i can change the parts of the script to say mplayer to open with mplayer but i tried that and the script just stopped working. This is the script:
