Bug Description
Mythbrowser does not play flash in Intrepid and in fact hulu says that flash is not installed.
Steps to reproduce:
go to http://
This is documented all over the Internet, but I have not found a sufficient solution or work-around. I do not have a keyboard for my mythtv and therefore Konqueror and Firefox are not really an option as I cannot control them.
It seems that Konqueror cannot play them either.
Hopefully this can be fixed in 0.22 (looks like mythbrowser is being converted over to use webkit instead of khtml), but it seems like that will be a long time before it hits Ubuntu.
From the 'net, some people have had success with kde3 and flash 9 instead of the intrepid kde 4 and flash 10, but trying to get kde 3 konqueror installed seems like it is not worth the pain and trusting 3rd party apt repositories.
mythbrowser version: 0.21.0+
flashplugin-nonfree version: 10.0.22.
If there is a good work-around to get hulu to work in mythbrowser (including building from source if necessary), please let me know. Unfortunately for me, I only want mythbrowser for hulu, so this is a blocking bug for me.
Thank you
looks like mythplugins is the source package for the binary mythbrowser package
