I guess this applies to a lot more formats. I'm aware about this "feature" for Gnash (we designed it that way) but wasn't aware about the Adobe player allowing it. > Probably there is simply no auto-detection for mjpeg available (or why > would the command line tool fail?). Again, I suggest you ask ffmpeg developers about the "why". Maybe it could be fixed in ffmpeg so gnash would just work. --strk; Free GIS & Flash consultant/developer () ASCII Ribbon Campaign http://foo.keybit.net/~strk/services.html /\ Keep it simple! _______________________________________________ Gnash-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnash-dev
