672078 - Flash Plug-in becomes unresponsive when tab is dragged onto second monitor

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Phillip Munn]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:8.0a1) Gecko/20110716 Firefox/8.0a1
Build ID: 20110716030739

Steps to reproduce:

1. Visit Justin.TV and prepare to start broadcasting.
http://www.justin.tv/home?broadcast=true

2. Drag Tab onto a second monitor.
3. Try to click on 'start broadcast' in the flash applet. You are unable to.




Actual results:

The flash applet that shows you your webcam is not not responsive to mouse clicks or events. Interestingly if you move the tab back into the main monitor with the other tabs the flash applet starts receiving mouse events again.


Expected results:

The flash applet should have received mouse events regardless of which monitor the window is open on.

I have done some tests.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:8.0a1) Gecko/20110813 Firefox/8.0a1
Build ID: 20110813030746
Flash Player 10.3.183.5 & 11.0.1.98

a) clean profile = works
b) installed Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.8.7 = still works
c) installed NoScript 2.1.2.6 = still works
d) installed LastTab 3.0t3.1 = no longer works

So it seams to be caused by add-ons.

Please check it with a clean profile and today's build again.
Or disable your add-ons one by one and test it again.

We've fixed some things with Adobe since then and this appears to be fixed.
