Description of problem: swfdec-mozilla requires a click to start any flash widget. This is a deviation from 'expected' flash behavior. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.5.5-2.fc9 How reproducible: Every time
Actually, I find this to be a nice feature, since I hate how some sites go crazy with their use of flash. ;)
The idea for this is still to make the plugin know on which sites it should automatically start playback and on which sites it shouldn't. Same for sound on/off. But noone has yet written the code for this. See http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/swfdec/2008-January/001113.html
But how does this help the normal user case? When it's part of a web site's standard display, how is it useful to the user to have to click on 3-5 separate buttons?
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Autoplay has been implemented in 0.8.0, which should show up in Rawhide tomorrow.
