Ok!! I have managed to get Swfdec to work with my distro, but not good enough luck with Gnash.
I just checked the youtube site, and on first looks, the videos seem to play ok!!
Anyway, how do the two (Gnash and Swfdec) compare??
And about open source JRE : from what version onwards has it become open sourced?? And how can I get that version?? The official sites doesnt seem to have got enough info (or maybe I have overlooked it)!!
The version that is installed for my distro (Arch Linux) is jre 6-2, and it seems to carry a closed-source license!!!
