[Bug 209634] Re: firefox + flash video: crash playing second movie

[knarf]

Well, as expected libflashplugin.so does not contain debugging info so
it is impossible to get a usable stack trace. I have posted this bug to
Adobe's bug tracker but they seem to ignore bug reports judging from the
reactions on their forum:

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=44&catid=184&threadid=1330175&enterthread=y

etcetera...

I also offered to help them fix the bug or at least find the cause but
they have to make an unstripped version of libflashplugin.so available.
As that might not fit with some corporate policy this might simply never
happen. Adobe does offer a 'debugging version' of the plugin but this is
meant for 'content debugging', not debugging of the plugin itself. These
versions can be found here:

http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

As the flash documentation license precludes the use of said
documentation to create a free version we may be staring down a dead-end
street.

Hey Adobe, are you reading along? Want your competition to beat you on
the fastest growing platform on the 'net? Microsoft is helping out with
porting Silverlight to Mono...
