Flash on YDL 6.2....


Ok I installed VLC & greasemonkey on YDL 6.2. It works like a charm and I can watch youtube videos in full or small screen. It doesn't work for any other sites though. How can I make it work for all flash videos. I installed something else that searches for scripts but no matter how many I add it won't work for any sites flash videos but youtube. Any advice? I want to be able to play all flash videos.

Also since the ps3 xmb is only good for watching flash videos for any site. What does it use? Something has to work with the IDM cell processors. I was wondering if we could run whatever the ps3 xmb uses to play flash on ydl? Thnx for help/info/advice!

Try setting up VNC between the PS3 and a x86/amd64 machine.

You are using Gnash or something, because true Flash will NOT run on a PPC Linux machine. Intel only. Gnash may work for youtube videos, but then again it may not. What I would do is ssh into an x86 machine and launch firefox like this:

ssh domain.com -l yerusername -X firefox

If SSH on that machine uses a different port than 22, use:


ssh domain.com -l yerusername -p 2200 -X firefox

Now you have firefox. This does not always work, but it usually does.
