Description of problem: Flash plugins does not work in epiphany, but appears among the oter plugins Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.2.1 How reproducible: Just visit any webpage with flash contend using the epiphany browser Expected results: Of cousre it should work as it used to be with fedora 15 and epiphany 3.0.X Additional info: more info here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664285
The bug report upstream was updated and closed: 'Except for the nspluginwrapper thing (workaround), you won't see Flash in Epiphany until WebKit2 or until Adobe ports it to GTK+3.'
Hi, the issue here is that I have nspluginwrapper installed, but still flash doesn't work. As far as I understood, it should be possible to have flash working via nspluginwrapper as used to be with Epiphany 3.0 in Fedora 15. It also seems, looking around that it is working on other distributions, but I couldn't find a guide for Fedora. The bug upstream was closed with the sentence:"Just google a guide for Fedora. Or try asking in some Fedora related chat, mailing list or forum." Not really closed for me. I'm following the suggestion and asking here. Is this a Fedora Bug/limitations? Am I doing something wrong with my configurations? Is there a correct procedure to do this?
Does not work me either with nspluginwrapper after upgrade to F16, but worked fine in F15. Looks bug for me.
Peter works on eliphany now.
The bug is still alive as for 2012-04-03, no way to make epiphany "GNOME Web Browser 3.2.1" to work, even with nspluginwrapper (now called mozilla-plugin-config). I guess some kinda of gtk+2 integration could be done in gtk+3 or epiphany, other options are adobe supporting it, or youtube to fully support HTML5 and not to be their limited testbed, though youtube is not the only flash company on the web. Hope to be usefull, have a nice bug hunting.
Ok, with fedora 17 beta, I got flashplugin working with epiphany on x86_64; sudo rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux sudo yum install flash-plugin epiphany nspluginwrapper sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins run as user (not as root): /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/npconfig -v -n -a -i Now start Web/epiphany, visit flash based site; and viola works. icedtea-web + openjdk6 do not work with epiphany/Web; use Sun/Oracle Jre for java applet support in epiphany.
Please ignore comment 6: here is the correct way: sudo rpm -ivh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-x86_64-1.0-1.noarch.rpm sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux sudo yum install flash-plugin epiphany nspluginwrapper sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins sudo yum remove totem-mozplugin *as user* rm $HOME/.mozilla/plugins/* /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/npconfig -v -n -a -i *As ROOT user (to bring wmv, etc streaming support): yum install totem-mozplugin Now launch epiphany/Web, flash in Web works. Just installed and tested on fedora 17 beta livecd. thanks.
F17 Beefy Miracle Here, as of updated to date (:D) system: I also managed to run flash-plugin from adobe with only: rm $HOME/.mozilla/plugins/* /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npconfig -v -n -a -i (since i don't have any totem-mozplugin to remove & install) Noting that using the nspluginwrapper "/usr/bin/mozilla-plugin-config -v -n -a -i" did not work at first. Weird that being the only /usr/bin file for nspluginwrapper. I thought wrongly it was a rename directly on /usr/bin, wroong. :D I'm gonna think Asif Ali Rizvan hunted the bug. Closed/Solved for me.
Would you please close the bug. I hate to see open for ever bugs, even when it is solved allready.
