Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

I get the same problem (stuck at 1%). I thought it was my Internet connection but these videos play fine on my system.

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

yup its definately pr1.2, usually if its a flash upgrade from the site it will prompt you to upgrade rather than hanging at 1% i really hope there's a quick fix for this because having to download all my "special interest" videos in advance is kinda inconvenient!

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

I can only guess that this a pr1.2 problem and not a flash 10 issue as other have suggested...

I've not had much luck identifying a similar bug report on bugzilla
https://bugs.maemo.org

Is anyone able to report it? I will but it would be my first time, lol!

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

yes, the loss of special interest videos would be some what frustrating!

Glad I'm not the only one!

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

Yes I can confirm that. I was crying about performance loss from leaked PR 1.2 hoping its only because of unofficial version.

Base on my project flaemo I noticed about 30% performance loss. (intentionally I' was using exactly the same build and version) Big impact on smoothness when you sliding the desktop. I was even trying to replace old version of plug-in, no differences. Seems to me like this is issue related with new MicroB improvements.

This PR completely made my project useless via MicroB, previously the whole solution was designed just for that environment. Pushing performance tweaks to the limit I was very happy with result. But at the moment whatever I'm trying to do even small experiments with few items on the stage, on low quality... the same symptoms.

Seems to me like something from outside keep attacking flash plug-in constantly. And my bet is I/O. Because when you run Flash files using FlashLauncher instead, performance is brilliant, but try to enter some text into input field and you'll see how quickly and repeatable hardware trying to pass data to the flash player making it stuck.

I think guys founded the way around and using some dirty hack to stop any external signals since flash player sits on MicroB. But this encapsulation unfortunately cost N900 to much resources.

That's why I was so p*** off that day. The same day news about lack of 10.1 in the future and Flash 9 working even worst. Flash It's big deal for me since I bought this device as my primary mobile testing platform. Now I can enjoy everything else I love about N900 expect I love the most.... :(

@devu

I can view your website on my phone the same way i could before the update

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

Thanks - So what's the next step?

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

Yes using the lower res version with popout player in full screen...

doesn't work now on pr1.2 - well for me at least, but it did previously.

Re: Flash video playback problems with pr 1.2
 

Read the Performance Monitor then.

From my observation


PR.1.1
MAX FPS 28
When sliding the desktop slowed down to 22 even if sliding like crazy.
Average time needed for recalculate every frame - 31ms

PR.1.2
MAX FPS 26
When sliding the desktop slowed down to 16 FPS.
Average time needed for recalculate every frame - 39ms

But that is not only the issue.
When I sliding desktop there are noticeable glitches and always jumps to the final position instead of smooth tween/ease.

I did some tests with just one element dragging it with the same ease functions. Its always jump. I check 3 different tween libraries and custom code to simulate tween, same result.

Compare to PC version or FlashLauncher... its nothing to compare really.

Usually when you using some enter frame listeners (to many of them) and using tweens you can see very similar smoothness loss. But that only telling me like some kind of "enter frame listener" is already running on top of flash player and causing synchronization problems that has impact on the smoothness.
