Flash 11.2 strange colors

[Kakao]

Running the new flash-plugin.x86_64 11.2.202.228 version in youtube / Firefox 11 / Fedora 16 yields strange colours like they were reversed. Can any one reproduce?

[DBelton]

I haven't noticed any issues with it here, but running F17 and firefox 11 with the 11.2.202.228 version of Flash.

Any particular youtube videos that do it? I could try those and see if I get the same results.

[Kakao]

All in youtube. In this one the opening Ferrari is bright blue for me:

[DBelton]

colors seem to be fine for me here.

What video card are you using? That might possibly have something to do with the differences. I have tried in on two machines here, one with an Intel and the other with an older Nvidia card (using the nouveau drivers)

[Kakao]

From lspci:

nVidia Corporation G98M [GeForce G105M] (rev a2)

Proprietary drivers from rpmfusion

[DBelton]

I wonder if it's an issue between flash and the proprietary nvidia drivers? I don't seem to see it using the nouveau drivers. '

Maybe someone running the nvidia drivers can test it out and see if they can reproduce it?

I'm using 3.3.0-4.fc16.x86_64, flash-plugin-11.2.202.228-release.x86_64, firefox version 11.0, a GeForce GTX 560 Ti video card with the version 295.33 proprietary nvidia driver (from rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing) and there is no color anomaly in any of the flash videos I'm seeing, including the link to the nice red Ferrari.

I am not having any issues with the flash player. I am running my Nvidia card NVS 4200M with Nouveau drivers, Firefox 11, Flash player 11.2, Fedora 17. No colour/image issues.

[Gareth Jones]

No issues here either (Nouveau with up-to-date Fedora 15/Firefox/Flash).

[Kakao]

I rebooted and my Ferrari remains blue.

Mine reads as below. You shouldn't need the NS plug-in wrapper for 64-bit plug-ins with 64-bit Firefox. It was used to run the 32-bit plug-in on 64-bit machines before the new 64-bit version was released.

I've no idea if it relates to the problem, but it's probably worth trying the plug-in directly without the wrapper.

Disabling hardware acceleration bring normal colours back.

@Gareth Where can I make the browser point to the non wrapped version? I have these two directories:

I have the same issue and, as stated above, disabling the hardware acceleration has fixed the problem for me. (NVIDIA GTX 460m)

And how do I do that? Here, the colours are still off. I was expecting it to be fixed with a couple of updates, but it's not...

Unless you are using, and needing the browser plugin, for AdobeReader, then you do not need either of:

nspluginwrapper.i686
nspluginwrapper.x86_64

If you are using AdobeReader and want/need it's browser plugin, then you probably have both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of nspluginwrapper installed (it won't work just one or the other, it needs both). The consequence of that is that even the native 64 bit browser plugins get "wrapped", even though they don't need to.

Do you have anything in: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins ??
