Package: swfdec-mozilla Version: 0.6.0-2 Severity: wishlist The swfdec-mozilla package is now a dependency of the gnome package, but it has some troubleshootings for some uses. In facts, I'm knowing about three Flash plugins decoders: swfdec-mozilla: it works but is very resource-greedy for video streeming like Dailymotion, and gnash reads better other animations. a goot compromise I think; mozilla-plugin-gnash: works very well with animations but mostly fail with video streeming (bad decoder I think); flashplayer-mozilla: not free, not nativly 64 bit, but works with almost all Flash uses.
I think that it is a good idea to make a free Flash decoder/plugin coming with GNOME by default, but I don't think the free implementations are really usables for anyone at this time, and not anyone would uninstall the gnome package. Then, I think that it would be nice to have the choice of witch Flash plugin we would use in our browser, e.g. with an update-alternatives entry. Message's conclusion is: I wishes to an update-alternatives flash-plugin entry letting the user choose between Gnash, SWFDec and Adobe's Flashplayer. PS: Please excuse my poor english...
