- Shouldn't the free player "fake out" an equivalent version number so
- this doesn't happen? Unfortunately, it limits the usefulness of the
- free flash player.
+ 3) What is expected to happen is when one opens Firefox and goes to
+ http://edition.cnn.com/video/ it plays the video.
- For example, browse to:
- http://edition.cnn.com/video/
+ 4) What happens instead is it does not. Notice if one secondary clicks
+ the flash window -> click File -> Properties it states in Stage
+ Properties Root VM Version AVM2 (unsupported)
+
+ This is a known enhancement request upstream ->
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnash-dev/2010-10/msg00054.html
+
+ This bug's importance should be marked Wishlist.
