Hi,

I'm using the open source Chromium web browser on Cent OS 6.4(Final).

I'm not able to view flash content on websites like youtube.

I've already tried installing Adobe Flash player.
Though system shows that adobe flash is installed i'm still not able to play flash content.

Please help.

I'm using Chromium browser in Lubuntu and had a similar problem, this how I got round it:

Open browser window.

Type in " about : plugins" (don't type quotation marks, also remove the spaces - typing without the spaces gives a smilie face on this forum!).

In the page that opens, click on "Details" in top right corner of page.

For all the plugins listed, click "Disable".

Now load Flash, hopefully it works!

Hi michaelm,

That didn't work for me ..

As michaelm said above
Go to

Then expand them. See whats listed at the flash player section - if you use Chrome and you have flash installed separately you should have 2 flash plugin instances there - the system's (installed by you) flash player that uses the old API and the flash plugin that comes with Chrome (uses the PEPPER API).
Disable the system's plugin and enable the PEPPER version. Restart Chrome then try again.

Is this a specific site problem or it happens on all sites?

PS there is a useful option in the advanced settings -> content (or what its called) named Click to play - this will make all plugins load only when you need them (you still have the option to run all plugins on a site if its done in flash entirely).

This is a problem for all sites needing flash..


Actually i had not installed pepper flash as i'm using Chromium not Chrome..

The problem is actually solved now..

The solution is to do
