problem with flash since ota.

[iknownothing]

Since the ota I have had problems with video on certain sites. Specifically the daily show or colbert. The problem is that the sound for the video plays very slowly... very very slowly. Like an lp set to the wrong speed. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I just checked the "how I met your mother" site from m.flash.com. same problem.

Also have this issue with an internet radio feed. This may be something that'll require an update to Flash Player to fix. Hopefully soon.

Yes, flash is borked for me as well. Not good, as I need my Daily Show / Colbert fix. Hopefully they'll fix it soon!

Whew, none of my porn sites are affected, my flash is working fine.

Woah very strange...I'm getting the really slow audio on the Daily Show full episode too. I'm guessing this has SOMETHING to do with the FPS being uncapped. Interesting...

Edit: Actually the ads play fine, just the "actual" video you're trying to watch is affected.

That's pretty hilarious. But yeah, its messed up.

Maybe we just need to be moved over to a more common version of flash for android without the cap factored in? I mean, no other froyo phone has a cap right?

Also, very impressed you guys have been watching colbert/daily on there. Hadn't tried it, just figured it would be too bogged down to even try to watch any full length TV episodes.

flash pretty much sucks on the phone.

 

[kidfaces]

Same here. I wish just once they could update/fix something and it NOT break something else.

There's a fix for this issue on XDA, but it's pretty involved and requires root.

 

[kidfaces]

THANKS FOR NOTHING!!!

j/k

If there is a fix on xda a link would be appreciated.

try going to the market and download adobe flash player. Yes, I know its already installed, but doing it this way seems to keep it more up to date. I already did my OTA update and tried several flash sites. Everything works fine for me.

Here's the link, but I haven't tried it. I'm going to wait for a fix to appear:

I already had the Flash update from the market. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the update just now but still same issue with slowed down audio on Comedy Central videos. I was able to see some other Flash videos in browser with no issues though.

That was the first thing tried. Still the same problem. It's not on every site is the strange thing. But there are far too many sites I like that don't work now.

 

[theelite1x87]

Hmmm...Odd. I'll try a few more sites then. The ones I normally view work alright. Though I will admit I dont visit too many.

I might try flashing that hulufix.zip (from the link above) a bit later to see if that simple step works. Do a nandroid backup first, of course.

Edit: I just flashed that zip file (hulufix.zip), and it fixes the problem perfectly. I think it will require root to do it, though. I downloaded the zip to my phone and flashed it within RomManager.
