Gnash should now partially work with youtube videos, if you disable cookies for the youtube site. Tools->Options->Privacy->Exceptions -> type youtube.com and select Block.
Extract the contents to/boot.
- Fewer dependencies! Gnash now only needs
- ffmpeg;
- giflib;
- boost.thread and date_time.
- Can be fine-tuned with
/boot/home/config/settings/Gnash/gnashrcand/boot/home/config/settings/Gnash/gnashpluginrcfiles. For example,set sound offandset pluginsound offturn sound off for the standalone player and plugin, respectively.
- You may use the Flashblock Firefox extension, which will block flash media from playing until you press to play them.

So curious that after install the lib dependencies of gnash, firefox gcc4 stop to show jpeg images.... so.. I'm stucked on firefox gcc2
*THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK*!!
THANK YOU!!!
cheers Adek336!
Please include curl to download install script, because without it ff crashes on pages with flash videos.
In time: with this new version (less dependencies) I'm able to use ff gcc4 version with jpeg! thanks!!!!!

Haiku r1 alpha 1

yep, it's noted problem, propably lack dependences for gnash in libs, and when you change website on such with elements (banner etc.) of Gnash, Bezilla automatically close.
btw when KDL occurs "exit" commands usually works and system still running.
I hope one day gnash will be running fullspeed on my MSI Wind :)
I'm wondering would it be possible to use ffmpeg included in Haiku to strip down gnash binary even more? Now that would be really cool!
Anyway, big thumbs up for your work!
It's marvelous!
Seems to break YouTube's CSS/Javascript?, and also complains of an old Flash Player.

*update - 'also complains of an old Flash Player', says that under BeZilla too.
congratulations on this awesome update, and on landing your patches upstream! That's a great achievement.
As for FFmpeg in Haiku, it may be difficult or impossible to re-use the version that's contained in the FFmpeg media add-on. Maybe the best way would be to include the FFmpeg libs as shared libraries in Haiku.
Code:
~/Desktop> haiku-gnash runtime_loader: /boot/apps/Gnash/gnash: Could not resolve symbol 'png_set_gray_1_2_4_to_8' resolve symbol "png_set_gray_1_2_4_to_8" returned: -2147478780 runtime_loader: /boot/apps/Gnash/gnash: Troubles relocating: Symbol not foundthx :)
Code:
~/Desktop> haiku-gnash /boot/home/Desktop/20051210-w50s.flvCould not load movie '/boot/home/Desktop/20051210-w50s.flv'
And vice versa, MediaPlayer or VLC can play an .flv file, but they can't play an .swf file and in effect they do not provide the means to render for example youtube (unless another tool is used to grab the .flv file, but the development of such a tool requires knowledge of how a specific video site's player implements fetching the video).
Also when I look at the download progress bar to where it is relative to the position of the part it is actually playing, the download progress is far ahead.
The download rate seems to go in spurts: first high then quite low or even zero at a regular frequency. This is the real cause of the jerky playback. It does reach full download before it has finished playing. When it does the playback becomes smooth.
Is there a way to cache the download before it plays?
This is one video that I played
earlier today and then pl;ayed again tonight:
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/video/index.cfm?all_videos&id=817#fragment-5
When I played it earlier it was not jerky because the kb/s rate although varying at a seeming continuous rate, was higher mean rate than tonight. As I played it tonight it was jerky. When I play similar videos in adobe flash for linux with the same connection on the other HD partition there is no jerkiness anytime of day.
I think I did increase the memory cache in adobe flash for linux up to about 10mb, but I cannot remember it playing jerky anytime with the current ISP and DHCP connected ADSL/2 modem.
Immediately after I went to the linux partition with adobe flash player and played the same url. It played smoothly except for a slight jerkiness at the start.
What is the crash most likely related to? Bezilla, Haiku r36425 or gnash 0.8.7?
Where should I report it? I have a backtrace for the segment violation.
I might just wait for Haiku to become more compatible or Gnash to become more stable.
i'm using the r1a2 rc rev:364474.
but it was the same with an older version of haiku.
any idea why ?
This might be a bit to do with my part of the world, (New Zealand) although the download finished before playback finished even at busy times.
If you could still get r36056 it might be worth trying Gnash with that.
i found out that the rev:36447 was missing the libssl.0.9.8.so and the libcrypto.0.9.8.so,so i took them from an older rev,but as you say the playback is jerkey,but i think that's a problem with the video playback in general with haiku.
we might get better perfomance when haiku and gnash will be more mattured.
With the gnash-0-x86-gcc4-2010-05-11.zip. This does not improve sound playback: "set pluginsound off". It is better because Bezilla does not crash now.
I don't know why I had it in mind about improving sound playback, since that is meant to turn sound off. What I meant to write was it does not stop jerky playback. I wish there was some way to edit a post. What a stupid mistake I made.
Just click on the notepad and pencil on the bottom left side of the comment
I cannot test with "set pluginsound off". When I go to any site with a flash video it crashes Bezilla. Testing in R1/alpha2
I will send you a private message with the backtrace.
I sent a backtrace in a private message but did not accompany with it, what the steps to reproduce are, except in the comments here. I will resend with the steps to reproduce. Sorry I did it in a hurry because it was late.
So Adek336, could you send me a private message and I will reply direct?

Strange unprogrammed like behaviour in software (apart from bugs) does seem to happen sometimes though. I read something in New Scientist that large programs are subject to the laws in Chaos Theory. The same laws that govern weather.
It would be great if large programs could ever in the future take advantage of this and self improve. Similar to Natural Selection in Evolution or a filtering system.
Flash in www work but not yt:
"You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.
Download it from Adobe."
+1
www.openformats.org
anyway good work congratulations.
Did you try the gnashdeps package which the description recommends you to download?
Thanks great work and yeah it work, i am waiting for gnash working on webpositive :).
That doesn't really depend on me, it's a matter of WebPositive not supporting NPAPI.

Firstly port Glew is needed
r37509 hybrid.
...So it wouldn't be possible to run it on a2 at all ?
r37509 hybrid." so no Gnash on Alpha R2. Got it!
Welcome to the Haiku shell.

That's why you see those missing symbol errors.
Changes have happened to Haiku and will require compiling Gnash for newer Haiku. Same thing for other programs giving missing symbol errors.
Side note, Gnash 0.8.8 was released Aug 22 which should work with Youtube once more but I don't think anyone wants to take time to update or maintain Gnash on Haiku?

Quoting tonestone57:
I notice Gnash release happens every 5-6 months so I expect 0.8.9 will be out in 2 or 3 months time.
It isn't only about rebuilding Gnash but also the dependencies which Gnash has lots of and requires to avoid any crashing issues from previously compiled libraries.
Creating some type of automatic way to build Gnash + dependencies from source (either with Haikuporter or otherwise) would really help make things way easier to maintain. Maybe even buildbot:

git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnash.git/log/?qt=grep&q=haiku
I don't have time to spend on this but maybe someone like Michael might.
However that git hasn't seen a commit since 7-20-2010
Quoting tonestone57:
I'm using Haiku very little these days. So I don't need or won't use Gnash. Maybe things will change later on with next Haiku release. Right now I get all the Flash I want with Windows 7. ;)
Maybe you missed it but Gnash is at version 0.8.9 =)
http://gnashdev.org/?q=node/78
And Gnash 0.8.9 blog says, "And yes, Gnash plays Youtube!!"
If Gnash 0.8.9 plays Youtube on Linux then it should also be able to do this on Haiku.
