looks like my post was removed, why?

I have found a bug with the latest version of Flash Player.  It breaks the sound on many games/sites.

You can experience this bug by visiting http://www.thepodge.co.uk/playazombiestolemytoaster.html

You don't even have to play the game - just click the play button on the main menu, then on the next screen, go back to the menu.

You will find out all the game's sound and music play over and over, causing a nasty racket.

These games are distributed all over the web and updating them will not fix the issue 100% as it is almost impossible to make sure every site is updated.

Please fix the issue - it might be affecting lots of flash content all over the web.

Hey guys,

I run a flash based massively multiplayer game and I've noticed a massive animation lag following upgrading to the latest version of the player.  Our players began reporting the issue, and I didn't notice until I grabbed the latest version.    All of our vector-based character animations run very slowly now.   It definitely seems to be the player as we've found that on machines not upgraded with the latest version the game performs well.

Can you shine any light on the changes that were made that would affect animation performance?  

Our game is published to FP 9.0... written in AS3.    I use Flash Pro CS3 as the publishing environment.   We've had no problems prior to this update.  I've reviewed the release notes but can't find anything that seems related to my issue.  Been searching for the cause for hours with no luck.

Thanks

this fails to work for me. everything was fine today, then at some point it said i needed a new flash player version as i was on itunes. i figure download and im good. wrong. everything downloads normally and says installation successful, reopen browser, click done. well every video is still saying get adobe flash player. help?

I tried unsuccessfully installing the IE flashplayer. Even on different pages throughout Adobe's troubleshooting sites. I think it has to do with M$'s IE KB update for XP SP3 x86, which I have. If I remember correctly, this KB update is a re-release of an Active-X Killbit. I had no problem updating FF 5 plugin. I hope this helps.

still doesnt work

i use safari. system mac os x 10.6.8

I disabled hardware acceleration but the problem continues.

 

I've been searhing a littler deeper. I downloaded the debug version hoping that would give me some sort of error log, but got nothing.

 

However, after about a second of the movie loading, I get the following context menu:

 

Movie not loaded...

Show Redraw Regions

Debugger

------

About Adobe Flash Player 10.3.183.5

 

All three top options are disabled/greyed out. Movie not loaded is certainally something I wouldn't expect to see.

 

Now, what's particularly interesting is that for the first couple seconds, I can get the normal context menu. Play, forward, next, etc.

 

My guess, and that's all this is - a guess, is that the application is trying to load another swf and failing. I do know this application loads a skin file and perhaps it is dying there. I know it's finding the skin file, because an error appears when I rename it. The net view in browser (firebug or chrome developer tools) shows the skin file loading properly. I know this isn't much to go on, but it's one more data point.

 

The whole issue might be some weird coding in the ChatBlazer app, however it's certain that this Flash upgrade isn't 100% backwards compatable.

Hi Ritteh,

I've been able to confirm this against 10.3.183.5 and beta 2 of Flash Player 11.  I'll be entering a bug about it internally so we can continue our investigation.  If you'd like to get updates, please feel free to enter a new bug over at bugbase.adobe.com and we'll link the internal bug against the public.  Please post back with the bug URL so that others can cast their votes and add comments.

 

Thanks,

Chris

It sounds like we are experiencing the same issue. It is outlined further in the thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/890568

I have submitted a bug via bugbase but can not get the url because of a security issue. I attached a couple of fla and swf files that recreate the issue.This is a massive issue for us. Is there any explanation as to what has caused this to start happening?

Thanks

Joe

I too am seeing the issue that Ritteh described, but I don't see a defect in the public database.  We are loading a movie inside another movie, but this has always worked in the past players.

Chris,

Is this defect being tracked publicly?

Getting Failed to Register Error installing this new version

Auto Update gave me the new version

Windows 7 64Bit

I am getting really tired of Adobe products, this is the second time this happened, last time was about 6 months ago and had to restage my whole system to get it working again. please fix this. I already tried all the troubleshooting from your site

Please can I add some information about the Control Panel issue (Bug 2940568).

My test upgrading from 10.3.181.26 with Control Panel applet installed, using the following command....

install_flash_player_10_active_x.msi /qn

....automatically removes the applet for some reason.

Cheers

Hi Chris,
