900774 - Flash 11.2.202.297 hang

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(External Software Affecting Firefox Graveyard :: Flash (Adobe), defect)

Description

[keepitsimplestupid]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130201190337

Steps to reproduce:

The pesky intermittant Flash bug is still around.  It happened under Windows and it happens under UBUNTU.

Freeze is Random, but typically occurs when or during a commercial.  Not reproducable.

This version of Flash is supposedly the last to be developed for Linux.

It does suggets that it may not have to do with the wrapper used in FF under Windows,  I donlt know if the "Wrapper concept" is used under Linux.

It's a known bug under Windows, but it is not easily reproduced.




Actual results:

Flash freezes

One website http://www.cbs.com/shows/under-the-dome/video/

On another website, I won't identify it publicly because of adult content, gets, I think a Flash error 1024 every once and a while or the content quits streaming.  The websites may use a different error reporting mechanism.  There was a higher incidence on this website.

Maybe, if I find a streamable movie, I could identify it better, but I don't really want to post the URL because of the adult content. It's also a pay per view site.

Both bugs could be related or the same.

If there is someone interested in the bug, send me an email address where I could report the URL if I find a movie that is particularly troublesome to view,  i.e. A higher incidence than ususal.

At this point there is no guarantees I will find one.

I'm closing a lot of bugs which are filed as Adobe Flash bugs which are either irrelevant, not actionable, or not serious enough to track in the Mozilla bug tracker. For the most part, Flash bugs should be filed in Adobe bugbase, and we'll only track a few highly-critical issues in the Mozilla tracker.
