|  | [solved] Adobe flash
« Thread Started on Apr 22, 2012, 10:56am » | |
When I go to youtube, it's telling me adobe flash needs to be upgraded. It's not that big a deal but i did notice some videos will not play at all. they just say "video unavailable". Is there a fix, or should i just install the latest version from adobe?

problem solved. I'm not sure why but when i reinstalled saline 1.6, the restricted media formats were not installed even though I'm pretty sure i selected them during install.
all i had to do was type "gksu installrestrictedmultimedia" in a terminal and it fixed the problem. (as noted in the saline user manual).

Minitube is free in linux and is great for not only browsing a search item but also downloading it to your harddrive. I use xvideoservicethief to grab youtube links personally. Easier than tying up my browser.

minitube doesn't even require flash to work

Don't bother converting the default youtube format with xvideo as it can degrade the file and takes longer anyways.
