Hello.
On two laptop, after re-installing OS 13.2 (full install, not upgrade) I cannot view TV film in replay anymore. The error is : Flash Player is missing.
As these computers have dualboot, I can see films on windows 10.
On asus R900V series

By the way, I’m also running 13.2: 3.16.7-29-desktop with KDE4/Plasma-4 and Firefox 42.0-50.4.x86_64.
YouTube movies such as the Americas Cup AC45F footage are playing just fine.
This had worked for me until I did a new install.
Perhaps some libs are missing.
I am going to add some multimedia apps ( like vlc ) and see what happens.
Unfortunately I have German language machines – for me it’s the (translated) “System Settings” – KDE “Menu” > “Favourites” > the crossed Spanner and Screwdriver Icon. And then on the top row “General Appearance & Behaviour” and within “Personal Information”.
Are you certain that the TV clips are using Adobe Flash?
Or, do you need the Multimedia Video Codecs?

Hi JCD,
I have a really stupid question: is the OpenH264-Videocodec supplied by Cisco Systems, Inc. included in your Firefox add-ons?http://www.openh264.org/
those are old versions, 11.2.202.**411 **for 13.2 and 11.2.202.**310 **for 13.1 https://software.opensuse.org/package/flash-player
mozilla might be blocking them as they have done before you need to update
packman has 11.2.202.**548 **
doing a dup with packman is simple enough what’s your repo list
I just wanted to note that flash-player has not been removed from 13.1 and 13.2, and will still be updated apparently.
But as always, it will take a few days until an official update is released, this is nothing new.
a new Mozilla block for Flash for Linux versions 11.2.202.509 to 11.2.202.539 is out https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/blocked/p1044
those are the versions for 13.2 and 13.1 currently hosted in the non-oss repo’s
a dup to packman is a must
