Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

OR you could just type tweakflashver
and it would still do an error lol

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

No, it's not that big of a deal, it just seams Qt is getting a bit lost with regard to storing settings of apps when run via sudo. When I run it as a regular user, it works fine (but then it obviously can't alter system files like the flash lib). I'll have a workaround ready in no-time. The four pages are just the result of the topic being hot, not the complexity of the issue :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Thank God that one day is over. After running this, does microb need restarted?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

No, the app restarts the browser daemon automatically.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

page segment fault too...is it because I have titans kernal?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

STAY CALM. I know what's causing the segfault (Qt is not too happy being run as root), and I will post a fix as soon as it's ready (=tonight).

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

can anyone give a list of sites that benefit from this?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Don't worry guys, once attila77 embeds the number '42' into the code, the application will run flawlessly :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

or be destroyed completely and replaced with something even more complex and absurd! :/

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Is this still up in extras-dev? Can't find it, I am not too sharp today.

Edit: Never mind, found it in garage :) Not launching correctly, but can't wait until next update, great concept.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

I tried to "feed" the android 10.1 .so to mbrowser on maemo, but it didn't work :( I have a feeling that adobe has an armel 10.1 version of flashplayer for debian based systems, just not easily accessible.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

To reiterate - this changes absolutely nothing in the functionality of the Flash plugin on your N900. It *only* changes the identification string. It is ONLY good for sloppy sites that throw 'you need to upgrade to Flash 10' in your face for no reason.

EDIT In other news, I just uploaded a new version to extras-devel... check in a few minutes and report back (especially if it DOESN'T crash ;) )

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

The new version works for me. I will try the FroYo ID. Which one works best for you?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

I would recommend the lowest version that you can get away with. The higher you set it the higher the chances of actually triggering something that DOES require Flash 10(.1) functionality.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

I was only able to run it as root. It would not start running as user.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

oh yeah, now i can watch videos from laola1.tv, jihaa :D
but, i have to start tweakflasher as root from terminal

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Okay, three questions: what's the error if you run it as a user, and two, is the UI light or dark when you run it as root (don't ask :) ). Lastly, does it perhaps work as user *after* you successfully started it as root. Sorry about the silly questions, but this root business is tricky to do right :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

1. On the contrary, I am able to run it as user from the command-line. It will not start as user from the desktop. However, when I attempt to make and save the change I get the following error: "Uh-oh. Error while opening/writing Flash plugin binary. I hope I didn't break it. Fear not, even if I did, I made a backup to ..., just copy it back to ... as root. the UI is dark.

2. If I run it as root from the command-line, I get a dark UI as before and am I able to make and save the change without error.

My test has been to see if I can watch a video from hulu.com. I've tried the following:
linux, 10,1,53,0
android, 10,1,61 (froyo)
linux 10,0.45

and none of them allow me to watch a video from hulu.com. The player loads for a while then displays the message "Sorry, we are unable to load the player...."

I'll try something less aggressive to test.

UPDATE: Ok, I am able watch facebook videos in microb, no luck in firefox 1.1. In firefox 1.1, the play button is never rendered and the area for the video to be displayed is just black.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

can't find it in extras-dev??

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Works great, opens straight from desktop, cant comment on colour though i'm using black plastic,
i tested it using this site http://2010.census.gov/2010census/ ive only tried the recomended linux version so far,
also ive downloaded the latest version of the app from here http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...er/0.2-maemo3/ the version i got from the app man (02 maemo1) wouldn't open for me and i got segfault both as user and root in xterm.

thanks attila77 great work dude :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

www.crunchyroll.com works now. Amazing. Using recommended linux version post update. Alot of sites require 10.1 but are still running on 9 or lower. Amazing, bravo attila77 bravo!!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Working allright from menu icon here. Why do you recommend version 10,0,45,0 specifically ?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Please move it to Utilities section, this is not connected to network.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

It's an existing, widespread desktop Linux version, that (AFAIK on Linux) did not have HW accelerated video decoding, so one could say it's the closest thing to our existing Flash version.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Indeed. Also, looking for an icon set, it uses the flashlauncher icon due to my lazyness and lack of design skills :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

which version work for fifa.com?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

may i ask how to add say libflashplayer10_0_53 from kevloral ? i mean to list of versions rather than manually ? not sure if i need to add it just enquiring really :)

cheers either way though much appreciate this app :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Thanks for your work and please don't forget us old people (diablo users that is :) )

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

yes, diablo version as soon as you can please ;)

anyone know if this wroks on bbc iplayer or tvcatchup in the uk?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

I think kevloral just made that version up (by putting a zero instead of the one into Android's 10.1.53), my flash version lists show no such thing actually existing... I would refrain from including a phantom version unless there are sites that require it (i.e. doesn't work with either 10.0.45 or 10.1.53, but does with 10.0.53).

BUT. If you really really know why you want that - check /home/user/.config/tweakflashver/main.conf, it contains all the versions the GUI shows (warning: it WILL get overwritten on an update).

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Segfault/root complaints have gotten rare, so I guess it must be working now -> the Diablo version is not that far :)

PS. Can anyone tell me what the Chinook Flash version was ?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

I am unable to start with icon, running from xterm as SU works perfectly.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

If you have 0.2-maemo3, it seems there is a hidden issue (dependency or other installed app) that enables something, that would explain why for some users it works and for others it doesn't...

What happens with "sudo run-standalone.sh /usr/bin/tweakflashver" (or just "sudo /usr/bin/tweakflashver") ? Segfault or ?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

installed it via apt-get install tweakflashver

rebooted

opened app, but it just crashes.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

cheers for your reply attila77 its appreciated and likewise for the info
:) many thanks :)

also worked straight away on my phone no reboot needed etc...

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

nothing for me (PR1.2)

Update: I ran midnight commander in root and browsed to the file /usr/bin/tweakflashver and hit enter. ran and updated flash ver being reported succesfully.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

working great here,
facebook and liveleak videos now play!
thank you attila77!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

Actually, that was exactly the case.

Greetings.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Tweak Flash Version
 

to fix the issue go to /usr/share/applications/hildon/tweakflashver.desktop and edit it.. instead of Exec=sudo run-standalone.sh /usr/bin/tweakflashver change to Exec=sudo /usr/bin/tweakflashver
