What does your firefox about:plugins
page say about
which flash plugin
is being used?
F8: Firefox v2.0.xxx
Shockwave Flash
- File name:
nswrapper_32_32.libflashplayer.so
- Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124
| MIME Type |
Description |
Suffixes |
Enabled |
| application/x-shockwave-flash |
Shockwave Flash |
swf |
Yes |
| application/futuresplash |
FutureSplash Player |
spl |
Yes |
F9: Firefox v3.0.xxx
Shockwave Flash
- File name:
nswrapper_32_32.libswfdecmozilla.so
- Shockwave Flash 9.0 r100
| MIME Type |

| application/x-shockwave-flash |
Adobe Flash movie |

| application/futuresplash |
FutureSplash movie |
spl |
Yes |
So -- the wierd thing is, that in F8, the Adobe Flash player works for
all
swf files within the browser, even though it says: "Shockwave Flash",
but in F9, even though it says "Adobe Flash movie", it resorts to using
swfdec 0.6.0. !
I have no clue why Firefox v3.0 does not seem to recognize adobe flash
and I have tried several times to reset the application within FF 3.0 to
no avail.
