It's not unusual. I open youtube or something similar then push pause and control + k - this opens the kmplayer and plays the flash video which stored by microb in /var/tmp. Addidtionaly I move /var/tmp to /opt becouse I watch online movies which take up much space in rootfs. Everything is explained in the first post. Just create (gave chmod +x) file which contains:
"exec /opt/kmplayer/bin/kmplayer /var/tmp/Flash*"
m:0x4 + c:45
Control + K

next: download xbindkeys and unpack to /usr/bin. After all type as a Normal user xbindkeys -f "your created file"
To create a symlink:
cp -r /var/tmp /opt/var/
rm -r /var/tmp
ln -s /opt/var/tmp /var/tmp
If you have problems with tracker:
chmod a=rwx /var/tmp/tracker-user
chmod a=rwx /var/tmp/tracker-user/user_tracker_lock

I'm not an expert and don't know if it is safe so be careful
If it works you can add it to autostart.

wait now, does this give me a possibility to watch online flash videos form sites like youtube, gorilavid, putlocker and similar in kmplayer instead of browser? so there is a hope that online videos could actually be watchable on n900?

For me, online videos were always watchable, even in microB (after using fullscreen - if rendered as part of page, it stutters, but on video fullscreen, it's perfectly fluent).

So, what was unwatchable for You?

Personally, I'm rather interested, if this could be used to watch videos strictly requiring flash 10 or higher, i.e. ones that try to load thanks to tweakflashver, but fail. i have no idea, how good mplayer codecs are, when related to adobe sh*t...

BTW, You can use method presented in this thread not only with kmplayer, but also with mplayer itself, or smplayer (another frontend for mplayer, IMO better than kmplayer...)
- whatever You feel fancy.

// Edit

One particular site, that got videos playing on N900, yet at unusable stuttering speed, is metacafe. I've tried it as guinea pig, but, it doesn't create /var/tmp/flash (and, it seems that nothing in /var/tmp at all). Does anyone know where it actually caches videos? I would like to try it with mplayer.

Estel if you have nothing in /var/tmp and you created symlink try: chmod a=rwxt /opt/var/tmp

I haven't created symlink, I use /var/tmp as is. It's not empty - it contain browser thumbnails and many other things, but nothing that seems related to metaface's video. I wonder where it caches it.

@GrimyHR
Same situations for sities like metacafe. It seems that it depends on flash implementation being used. For example, youtube works fluidly. Reportedly, many porn sites too

@JSTAR I don't use kmplayer, so I have no idea. As for smplayer - if mplayer can do it, smplayer will be able also. Probably, it depends on streaming technology being used on particular site - You must experiment for Yourself.
