Package: gnash Version: 0.8.3-6 Severity: important gnash now supports youtube videos pretty well; however, the same can't be said for most other flash video sites. i've compiled a list (in no particular order) of those that are currently broken:
http://video.google.com (videos will sometimes say loading, and some will play sound, but none show images) http://www.hulu.com (the frame of the video player loads, but it says "unavailable") http://www.thedailyshow.com/full-episodes (just get a black window) http://www.southparkstudios.com/episodes (spiral continually spins) http://www.cbs.com/innertube (just get a grey window) http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video (videos play with sound, but audio skips and gets out of sync) http://vids.myspace.com (just get white window) http://www.cnn.com/video (frame loads, but neither sound or video start) http://www.break.com (frame loads, and continually says "buffering..") http://video.yahoo.com (just get black window) this applies to version 0.8.3 of the mozilla-gnash-plugin on firefox 3.0.3. all of these sites work ok with adobe's flash 10 plugin on firefox 3.0.3. in order to convince average users that gnash is indeed capable of meeting all/most of their needs, these less-common sites will need to be made to work as flawlessly as youtube. i understand that it will take a lot of hard work to get there, but hopefully this list of problems is a good starting point. this has been reported upstream at http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?24472. thanks for all the hard work! -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnash depends on: ii gnash-common 0.8.3-6 free Flash movie player - common f ii libc6 2.7-14 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.20-1 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.11-3 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 gnash recommends no packages. gnash suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
