Flash player can't "grab" desktop image. Even if it would capture it, it would be "useless" since it doesn't have a proper video encoder for such a video. (high resolution, small area changes, need for color compression and much more...) So Flash player can't (even if you use the mighty video driver it will NEVER give a good performance).
If you can't use flash... what remains to you ? Java is the only solution which can be "installed" without having any particular client to be downloaded (like flash) and is multiplatform. This is why all "useful" alternatives to breeze are java based. you could also use windows ocx, which would give a very good performance, but it will be a MS Windows only solution.
