1240289 - Flash Player controls are small

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[John]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0
Build ID: 20160105164030

Steps to reproduce:

Watch streaming flash video. Firefox 43.0.4, Shockwave Flash Plugin 20.0.0.267, Windows 10 Home, Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M and Intel HD Graphics 530 are listed as Graphics Adaptors, 3840 x 2160 screen resolution, touchscreen display, Dell Inspiron 7559 laptop


Actual results:

Embedded Flash video on websites - the controls are tiny, the video is small and centered int the Flash window, the settings window is so small that I can barely read the settings. Loading the same page in IE produces normal sizes. I have read that this can be a problem with extremely high resolution graphics.


Expected results:

Flash player should resize to adjust for larger screen resolutions.

Bug 820831 was fixed on our side. My understanding at the time was that we were waiting for Adobe to ship a Flashplayer fix to actually fix this, but I'm not sure the status of that. In any case at this point the ball is in Adobe's court and we don't need to track this in the Mozilla bug tracker any more.
