I have Linux Mint 7 (essentially Ubuntu 9.04) and also have problems with .swf files. I get the error message 'GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error.' as well, but I'm not entirely sure its the same problem: I get the following output from terminal when I attempt to play the file:
------------------------------ totem ~/Downloads/rta1.swf /var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gdata/tlslite/utils/cryptomath.py:9: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead import sha ** Message: Error: GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error. gstffmpegdemux.c(1215): gst_ffmpegdemux_open (): /GstPlayBin:play/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0/ffdemux_swf:ffdemux_swf0: Unhandled error code received -------------------------- The file I have tried to play can be found at http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/licensing/tests/driverqualificationtest/hazardperceptionpart2/buildyourhazardperceptionskills.html and clicking on any of the options in the main frame results in the problem occuring. -- error on playing swf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
