1017205 - Shumway doesn't play back .swf created by Jing Screen Capture

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox Graveyard :: Shumway, defect)

Description

[Erin Lancaster [:elan]]

Often .swf is referred to as being "legacy" but it's actually really handy, especially when used by tools like Jing which I use for screen captures. I have Shumway enabled by default on my laptop but the file doesn't play:
http://people.mozilla.org/~elancaster/FindMyDeviceScreen.swf

0) Fx30, Mac OSX. Shumway enabled =yes
1) copy and paste above URL into the browser URL bar
Expected behavior: a 'play' icon will show up in the browser content and .swf plays back
Actual: No option to play back
2) Disable Shumway (click on 'x' to dismiss)
3) a 'play' icon will show up in the browser content and .swf plays back

Not an urgent matter but I'd use/test shumway way more if it worked. Esp with FxOS 2.0 development under way.

Tobias says this is a screen codec issue.

This bug does not need to block Shumway's 1.0 milestone for ads.
