Gnash Win32 snapshot build (r9575)

Hi,

I've pushed a new snapshot build of Gnash for Win32, bzr r9575, up to 
getgnash.org:

     http://getgnash.org/packages/snapshots/windows/gnash-win32-r9575.zip
     http://panoptic.com/gnash/gnash-win32-r9575.zip

     MD5: e65f73adaff0e23c730e903329efb31a  gnash-win32-r9575.zip

I do plan on packaging up a Gnash 0.8.3 binary as well, but if you're 
interested in testing more recent code, please give this snapshot build 
a try.

Gnash RcInitFile parsing

Hi,

  I have installed mozilla-plugin-gnash and get the following parsing error:

RcInitFile: parsing /etc/gnashrc
RcInitFile: couldn't open file: /home/≤user>/.gnashrc
RcInitFile: parsing /etc/gnashpluginrc
RcInitFile: couldn't open file: /home/≤user>/.gnashpluginrc

Does anyone know how I can diagnose and cure the symptoms.

Many thanks,
Jon

Gnash is skipping video on youtube

Hi,

I'm using gnash 0.8.3 with agg, dbus, gstreamer, gtk, and firefox plugin 
enabled (gentoo). My firefox version is 2.0.0.16 and gstreamer version 
0.10.20.

When I try to launch a video on youtube, it is skipping to the end and I 
see the related videos. I have read youtube was supported and I've found 
people with the same bug I have but they didn't keep trace of a possible 
fix. So, I was wondering why I have this issue : because of a 
modification on youtube videos since 0.8.3 or because of my system ?

Thanks,
Mounir

Using gnash to parse SWF file

Hi,

Is it possible to use gnash to parse SWF file? Getting all the tags,
action scripts, timeline, images, image url.
i understand the implementation for SWf 8,9 is incomplete, but what
about if i just use it for parsing? Does gnash allow me to do that?

Thank you.

Installation From Scratch

Alright, so I was poking around on the AGG group for this problem, but since I'm trying to install Gnash I figured I'd go straight to the source.

The system I'm trying to install it on is a UNIX box that doesn't really have any of the dependencies, apparently. The first time I tried to run ./configure I ended up being told to install the following: libxml2, KDE development package (I plan to skip this since, apparently, I can), JPEG library development package, gstreamer, AGG development package, BOOST. I've gone to all the sites in question and downloaded the source files (I'm relatively new to UNIX; I have no idea what a 'package manager' is or how to use it, and the documentation seems to assume that I should).

Where do I go from here? Assume I have no idea what I'm doing, because that's basically the case.

I've basically gone through the list as follows: cd to the directory that I extracted the files to, type './configure', type 'make', type 'make install'. For libxml2 and gstreamer, this worked fine. For AGG I get an error (apparently you're not supposed to compile AGG or something?), and for Boost and the JPEG package it appears to work. However, when I type './configure' in the gnash directory I extracted things to, it says that I still need to install the JPEG library development package, AGG development package, and BOOST development package. But I just did. So what's the deal here?

SWF8 is not fully supported?

I am using gnash-0.82-3.fc8.x86_64, with the related plugin, to run swf files in firefox, on a x86_64 machine.  My operating system in fedora core 8. When I access sites such a YouTube and try to run video, I get the following message in my log file:

25132] 18:53:55: UNIMPLEMENTED: SWF8 is not fully supported, trying anyway but don't expect it to work

I then get the following error messages further down in my log file:

25132] 18:53:55: ERROR: On ActionNewMethod: no object found on stack on ActionMethod
25132] 18:53:55: ERROR: On ActionNewMethod: no object found on stack on ActionMethod

21936] 19:24:53: ERROR: Unexpected num gradients (9), expected 1 to 8

22000] 19:25:40: ERROR: ActionLimits hit during advance: Loop iterations count exceeded limit of 65536. Last branch was from pc 7110 to 6780.. Disabling scripts
22013] 19:25:50: MALFORMED SWF: Bitmap fill specifies '65535' as associated bitmap character id, but that character is not found in the Characters Dictionary. It seems common to find such  malformed SWF, so we'll only warn once about this.

Has there been a fix to these problems?

Thanks
Steve

[Newbie!] Need info: compiling for Win32 and Win32-Firefox plugin

Hello! Not only did I just learn about Gnash, but I'm new to Savannah, 
too... The usual patience is appreciated.

I have a box that runs Win'08 "Server", not as a server, but as a 
desktop OS .
My "real server" runs Linux. :)

I'm looking forward to being able to use Gnash as a Firefox plugin, on 
the '08 box. Adobe's product is one big "black box" I perceive as a  
potential security hole -- that's what brought me here. Reading the 
docs, I found that Gnash caters to my other "bitch": I can block those 
$%@ banner-ads that scream "You've won a free computer!'.

FIRST: I see the binary for the standalone player for Win32. Does that 
mean that the mozilla plugin doesn't work there (W32) yet? or, will a 
build-from-source (of course configured properly) produce one that should?

I have at my disposal:
MS Visual Studio 9 installed, can install 8 if necessary
Cygwin, last used to build a development snapshot of VLC Media Player
All the usual development tools on the Linux box.

Where is, or who has, the Latest and Greatest notes on building for 
Win32?  I'll do whatever of the three work best:: MSVC, gcc-cygwin, or 
gcc (Linux).

After success at that, I'll say "thanks" with some documentation for 
you, covering installation and use on Windows for you all.

Thanks!

Possible gnash license violation

Hello, I think I've discovered a possible (in the near future) license violation related to gnash.

http://www.rentacoder.com/RentACoder/misc/BidRequests/ShowBidRequest.asp?lngBidRequestId=971710

If you look there, you'll see that Legal 3b) looks very strange.
I'm no lawyer so I thought I'll pass the link to you, so you could investigate further if interested.

Best regards.

Missing Mozilla Plugin

I just installed gnash BZR and it seems to play swf files fine, using
gnash <file>.

It said in the installation instructions that it would place the
mozilla plugin in ~/.mozilla/plugins, but nothing new has been put
there.

I also have no ~/.firefox directory.

I configured like this: 

 ./configure --enable-gui=gtk --with-agg-incl=/home/b0ef/.pkg/agg-2.5/include --with-agg-lib=/home/b0ef/.pkg/agg-2.5/src

Anything special I need to do, to build and install this plugin?.

Exactly what files are supposed to be placed in ~/.mozilla/plugins?
