[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4036 bytes --]

As of lately (I can not really remember since when) FlashPlayer has
stopped working in FireFox.

I'm running an "stable" AMD64 system with FireFox
(www-client/firefox-17.0.8), FlasPlayer
(www-plugins/adobe-flash-11.2.202.297) and NS-Plugin-Wraper
(www-plugins/nspluginwrapper-1.4.4-r3).

If I emerge the 64bit FlasPlayer I get the following errormessage when
trying to wiev a video on YouTube "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed"
and I get the following in the .xsession-errors:

plugin-container: htab.c:83: vlGetDataHTAB: Assertion `handle' failed.
WARNING: pipe error (51): Connection reset by peer: file
/var/tmp/notmpfs/portage/www-client/firefox-17.0.8/work/mozilla-esr17/ipc/chromium/src/chrome/common/ipc_channel_posix.cc,
line 421


If I on the other hand emerge the 32bit version + nspluginwraper nothing
happens in FF (the "video-pane" just stays black) and I get the
following messages in .xsession-errors:

npviewer.bin: htab.c:83: vlGetDataHTAB: Assertion `handle' failed.

(The last line just keeps repeating)

Any suggestions what my problem could be and how to solve it?

Adobe doesn't support the plugin API that FF uses anymore. Flash video
is almost certain to crash for most users. Chrome uses (created?) the
"pepper" API that Adobe supports, ships a recent Flash version and
videos work there. I didn't test it, but there is
www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins for Chromium that should deliver the same.
