|

I'm using mozilla and firefox, and was wondering which plugin/library
is best for viewing Flash (animations, games, etc.).
As always, there are several to choose from, so which one do you
recomend?

netscape-flash worked well for me until recently, but I seem to be the only one having the problem... |

Use netscape-flash. It works flawlessly. There is a GPL flash, but it only supports very old versions of flash, like version 3 or older. Current flash version is 7. _________________ Teilo who is called Teilo |

The flash that works best is emulating the Windows flash plugin with Crossover office. It's not free, and its almost not worth it, but it's the sad truth.
netscape-flash has problems with syncing the audio with the video. This is usually only noticable in very fast animations, but it can get annoying. |

I've used netscape flash for years and have never had any problem. Currently my system is running net-www/netscape-flash 6.0.81. |
