unable to view video content from the web. I'm not sure what changed, other than installing the recommended updates to Ubuntu about a week ago. I'm thinking a Flash update/reinstall might resolve the problem, but I can't seem to get the updates to install properly.
View 7 RepliesI recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64 beta. After installing the flash player, everything worked fine. I installed a few updates, as well as Ubuntu Stuido from the synaptic package manager, and when I rebooted, I can't hear any sound from flash content displayed in Fire Fox. All other sounds work fine, and I made another user account as a test, and that account has full audio functionality, including flash...
View 5 Replies View RelatedAnyone using flash with blogtv? I've got a Ubuntu 9.10 box with a nvidia 9400gt card running flash and have run into some weirdness. I get alot of flicker when viewing flash content on sites like blogTV. Also, cannot get my webcam going in blogtv. Webcam is a webcam pro 9000 and works flawless. The problem is adobe flash. I have researched and know that there are problems with flash and linux but whats interesting is that I also run a fedora 11 box and blogtv works fine. The video card in the fedora box is a nvidia 8400 and running flash.
On the Ubuntu box when you go to broadcast you get the flash permissions (allow blogtv permissions on camera) but the buttons do not work. It pretty much locks up in the flash widow only. Also, Viewing content on the site has a lot of flicker. Other sites do not have this flicker. Seems strange that my fedora box works with no problems but the Ubuntu box doesnt. Today Im going to try the beta flash (libflashplayer.so) from adobe version 10.1.51.66 and see what that produces.
Installed Fedora 10 a few months ago. Was using pulseaudio and when viewing flash in firefox I was getting sound. I was experiencing too many problems with pulseaudio and other apps, so I uninstalled pulseaudio and now I'm using alsa exclusively. However, since doing so I no longer have sound when viewing flash in firefox. Sound when playing movies and/or listening to music is totally fine. I tried removing firefox and flash-plugin and installing them again but to no avail. I'm on FF 3.0.12 and flash-plugin 10.0.22.87-release.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI like Chrome and Chromium seems really nice on ubuntu. In Preferences -> Under the Hood -> Content Settings -> Javascript, I have selected no javascript. I then go to Exceptions to enter file:///* or similar but the input control doesn't accept this. It seems to want to a domain name and doesn't like forward slashes.
I've looked in the Preferences file but after adding a dummy exception I see no details of that exception. Anyone know where these exceptions are so I can try to manually edit?
I try to watch flash content but everything is covered with a pink layer... (see attachment file). I am using firefox 3.6.1.5 (same prob with opera!) and flash 1.0.2.r152 in ubuntu 10.10 with compiz disabled and GPU Override set to true (no difference with false..) I tried FlashAID for a clean setup and I have only flashplugin-installer on my laptop (no gnash or libswf...), I also tried it with the package "adobe-flashplugin" same problem. This and the a2dp-skips are my last problems before a perfect setup.

I've been struggling with Firefox and Flash for a while now and I'm finding that Firefox 4 has pretty well broken. No flash content is working in it at all but it seems pretty difficult to locate to remove and reinstall. I think I installed Firefox 4 from the Mozilla website originally. Most stuff works in Opera but I've been firefox for a long time so reluctant to change. I've searched for forums for similar problems but can't seem to see anything. I've uninstalled and reinstalled firefox 3.5 but that's not fixing the issue.

Does anyone know a way to stream the flash-content with a mediaplayer?

View 7 Replies View RelatedEvery time after I resume from suspend, firefox freezes up to 7sec at "flashed" sites.That is very annoying. If I disable the adobe flash plugin, it is smooth without flash. If I restart my laptop, everything goes flawlessly. It did not if I restart the X service.This also affects the chromium on both the smooth scroll and the freezing at flashed sites. Additional information: Opensuse11.4 32-bit KDE.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI tried the "rpm", the "yum", and the "tar.gz" from the adobe site. Both rpms installed fine but I still can't view flash content in Firefox (missing plugin). The .tar.gz contained a .so file, but the installation instructions for the flash player said I should see an installer file in the .tar.gz, but I do not. I can't believe I can't even get flash player working. Their instructions said to check under "Help > About Plugins" but obviously Firefox does not and has never had such an option. I hate Adobe.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a fairly fresh Slack install. When I start or shutdown X, the sounds that are supposed to play do. Also, sometimes everything else that is supposed to play sounds does.
However, sometimes the sound doesn't work for flash content or pidgin. I have never had a similar problem and I don't know where to start in resolving this issue.
I just started using Linux today on an inherited acer aspire one laptop. got myself tied into my home's wifi, but now i need a flash player so I can play games and watch video. Adobe has 5 different options for linux and I don't have any idea which one to pick.

Something odd going on with flash and watching videos, listening to the radio on the BBC website in Ubuntu 10.04.
Flash works fine for ....., the guardian, anything really but when play pressed on any video it tries to load and then finally a message comes up saying "This content doesn't seem to be working. Try again later".
This is not an iplayer problem, its the embedded flash videos in the BBC site. I'm behind a proxy but housemate's computers all work fine with it.
I am using find to search for .tgz files modified more than 7 days ago and delete them.find /directory/ -iname backup*.tgz -daystart -mtime +7 -exec rm -rf {} My problem is that find will go through the content of tarball as well and list all content. I want to only search main tarball and delete it if older than 7 days.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI posted about viewing desktops remotely (received no reply), as I have an "off task web-drifting" problem with some students in my classroom, due to the fact that I no longer have my old SynchronEyes program. I have Windows Vista Business/XP Pro machines (32 of them in all) and I cannot view desktops remotely, regardless of the fact that 1) the Remote Desktop Service is enabled, and 2) I know the IP numbers and the domain names. How can I view desktops remotely with the Remote Desktop Viewer tool in Ubuntu, with the fact that the IP addresses are correct and the Remote Desktop Service is enabled on all 32 machines?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy wife use to look at this webcam using the Opera web browser, setting it to reload each 2 seconds or each second or so. However, she'd like to be able to watch the link in a minimal window without having to start the web browser. Anyone know of such a program? The program is supposed to open the link as an image and update it every second or so. It should be "ultra light" and have a minimal user interface.
Another option would be to view the webcam directly on the desktop instead of only having a picture there. Is that possible? What additional software does she need for that? She has compiz fusion installed, if that matters. She has Ubuntu 9.04 on one computer and Ubuntu 9.10 on the other one. If you click at the link above and it's completely black (except for some text and some logos), it's probably because it's night (Swedish time) and they turned off the lights.
I need GD for image viewing with PHP. On the PHP web site it says I have to recompile PHP --with GD. However in the user comments someone said that with Debian use apt-get install php5-gd and that will work. Well I tried that and I still do not have GD available. Is there something I missed with the apt-get method or do I have to recompile PHP?

how it is possible to watch the superbowl on linux natively? I am in charge of the computers at a school for mainly american students who are studying in my country, the school wants to enable them to watch the superbowl, tehy gave me a page with system requirements which seemed to suggest that it was just a flash movie player.
However when actually browsing to the demo I was confronted with an OS warning, at first I thought it was just a "stupid" me message like Yahoo-mail telling you that they haven't tested the rich version on your OS, but when browsing there with useragent set to winXP it turns out that you need the "MoveMediaPlayer". If left with no choice I guess I will install it together with firefox in wine, but I'd much rather have a different solution, also does anyone know if this player works well in wine?
No progress viewing input yet in Linux. I installed MythTV, VLC, and no luck yet with vids or sound.I had video input with Windows Movie Maker, and Media Player Classic (3rd party), but no sound in either.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to view all of the entries in an LDAP Address book at one time (ie in the address book pane) of an email client? I've tried in both Thunderbird and Outlook 2003, and I get the same behavior - the mail client can auto-complete entries, but it can't seem to list the whole address book at once.
Is there a certain structure of the LDAP tree that will grant this support? Can it be done at all? It seems to me an 'address book' that can't be browsed as a whole isn't very effective...
I should add that I'm the one who set up the LDAP server - I'm just testing various capabilities of LDAP.

I switched to ubuntu in 2008 dual booting it with windows vista. I loved ubuntu but I began to run into a few issues and eventually went to windows only for a while. Well I am back into it as of november of 2010 since my windows Os was just ticking me off. I absolutely LOVE linux but I've run into the exact same issues I had before. The most pressing issue at the moment is the fact that for some reason when I click on anything in "places" such as documents, music, etc. nothing happens. This includes clicking on the HD on the desktop. I click and then menu goes away as if its going to open the folder but it doesn't. Going to computer works and I can go from there but I want to know why this has happened seemingly out of the blue and happened both times I installed ubuntu? When I typed sudo nautilus into terminal I get the following:
Code:
xavier@xavier-Vostro1510:~$ sudo nautilus
[sudo] password for xavier:
Initializing nautilus-gdu extension
** (nautilus:19375): WARNING **: Failed to get the current CK session: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.GeneralError: Unable to lookup session information for process '19375'

I am not sure exactly what this means but maybe it is a clue. I am actually planning on reinstalling linux at some point because I am dual booting and running out of room so I am gonna kick windows to the curb (it wont load up anyway) but I want to resolve this since its happened twice and will again i am sure.
When I use any application to upload an image, the dialogue box opens for me to select my file, but I can't view my images as thumbnails. Instead it reverts to List view and displays the columns with the file name, last modified etc data. This is very frustrating when dealing with images. I'm a photographer and handle many hundreds of images.
