When I download this file it wont play on my hd2. I can watch youtube ok but not video on web pages. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Flash isn't on the HD2 browsers other than Skyfire
Hi, when I browse the web - usualy in opra 10 - I get a link to download the adobe flash to be able to watch video content. When I install the file I get the message 'not a valid pocket pc application'?
Read my previous post
Read mine...
FLASH IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR ANY BROWSER ON THE HD2 EXCEPT SKYFIRE
Clear enough for you?
it dont work on skyfire, billybob!
youtube works fine in skyfire (and u didnt mention skyfire in any post, just opera)
Use Opera 10. You need to turn on plugins, but flash is great in Opera 10 after you do that.
THERE'S NO NEED TO SHOUT ABOUT IT!!!! lol
i stand corrected, thanks jon
Are you guys kidding me! Flash works perfectly fine in Internet Explorer! Heck I've personally used IE to watch videos on Megavideo.com smoothly! Youtube works perfectly in IE!
I apologise for my outburst. I have opera 10 installed and plugins turned on but still no go!

Try turning plugins off, restarting Opera, and then turning them back on again. Sounds a bit "turn it off and on again", I know, but it may help.
Opera 10. bbc.co.uk news. when I try and view video I get link saying 'cannotplay media' you do not have the correct versionof flash player - download correct version.' when I download the adobe 9 on my hd2 from that link an error message tells me 'not for pocket pc'??

You cannot install flash like you would normally on a PC... hence the "not for pocket pc" error you keep getting.
Flash works on the HD2 with either:
a: Internet Explorer (but this is flash lite NOT full flash)
b: Skyfire (FULL flash... working perfectly... if you cant get flash going in this browser you have done something wrong)
c: Opera 10 (activate plugins to get flash... not sure whether this is full flash or flash lite though)
d: Any other version of Opera using operaflashfix (search on xda for this... but installing the fix can cause other issues)
You cannot download Flash from the Adobe website, it's not available for Windows Mobile (as I've said all along). You need to use a browser that has Flash installed already.
Can you try YouTube and see if that works in Opera 10? The plugin is still not v10, so there will be flash files online that won't play. It could simply be this that's your problem.
Also, give us the URL of a page that you're having problems with and let us try it.
www.bbc.co.uk
click on 'watch'

Yeah, I did just try that and got the same result as you. Like I said, since the mobile plugin is a lesser version than the PC plugin there will be some things that won't play. I guess the BBC aren't too fussed about who can play their content.
well, ok. thanks for the replies anyway.

Does this enable viewing of flash animations on websites via the PIE broswer (like www.homestarrunner.com/) or is this just to run flash files already saved to your PPC?
works on loading flash on websites. i like weebl and bob. lol
8)
i just took some screen shots with a PIE page with flash animations.
so yes, it definatly works 8)
Holy crap. I thought I had to wait until netfront for WM 5 was released to watch Strongbad. I love you all today!
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=41435&highlight=
FLASH 8
Downloaded and installed, thanks, still doesn't work with a particular site, reports Flash player plugin not installed. Have a look at www.finspreads.com and hit "click here to login" should load their platform or complain about no plugin, fine on my desktop PC. I conclude that FLASH 8 is required, not 6.
Hi
Flash player for the PPC is currently in version 6.
So any site that features Flash content in versions 7 or 8 won't work on this device.
With Flash, you can view content on a web site, but you can also run Flash based programs like this one:
http://www.smartphone.net/software_detail.asp?id=2081
Good luck.
This file was found in the internet and forget the download link and place.
Tried it on WM6 PPC under WiFi connection, and the screen playback is smooth and good with the FULL video in the websites.
No need to Wait Wait Wait for downloads.
Description:
1. This additional file to TCPMP will create a homepage to open by PPC IE, you can choose the full video in either link like YouTube. You can also direct type in URL of Youtube in IE for video file viewing.
2. When click on the movie clip, a pop-up will have [Play video] , [Save video] and [Linked page] for you to choose.
3. Choose [Play video] will auto open TCPMP and playback the video in streaming mode.
Requirement:
1. TCPMP version 0.72RC1
2. Additional file: FlashVideoBundle.CAB PbWF
Remarks:
When playing video in streaming mode in TCPMP, do not use fast forward key or slide bar in TCPMP. It may halt the playback and freeze the PPC or make the ppc hangup. You can use play, pause , stop or exit functions in TCPMP to control the plackback.
Attached RAR file included:
1. FlashVideoBundle.CAB
If your TCPMP is not the new one, uninstall it then download and install the new version. After TCPMP installed, install the attached [FlashVideoBundle.CAB]. Completed all installation, you need to Soft Reset PPC
Or, if you already installed new version TCPMP, you only need to install the [FlashVideoBundle.CAB] and Soft Reset after installation.
You can find the [FlashVideoBundle.CAB] added a homepage in your program folder.

Thanks for the update mohit_kripalu
Thanks, it's awesome. Btw it's possible to make it compatible with mini opera?
Any chance of an alternative download site?
Work doesn't allow peer-to-peer websites.
Otherwise I'll wait until I get home

Just tried it with a Vario II, but when i select YouTube full, my ppc is freezing.
And have to reset...
Works on O2 XDA Orbit (HTC Artemis) ! But tvlinks.co.uk does not work for any reason
When I stop playing, does the stream still load to the PDA so I can continue watching when it is downloaded to a more stable state?

########## UPDATE 29 NOV 2008 ##########
I update forum for put more detail.... (Special Thanks to DIB2000 & Dutty & VeyKa and ALL XDA-Developer and Thanks to kdskamal http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=1507 for your post !)
For View Flash on Windows mobile Device, have need to:
0) Opera and Flash is need to install in same Memory, i suggest to install in INTERNAL MEMORY !!
1) Check if OPERA don't runnig using TaskManager (if running Kill it) with this program (Thanks Dutty)
http://www.4shared.com/file/73670418/1e67bf53/Task_Regedit.html
2) Opera Browser (i preferred 2808) in VGA o WVGA (depend to DEVICE TYPE)
If you don't have install, use that links:
If you have VGA DEVICE install
http://www.4shared.com/file/73664152/2e17ef45/WM6_PPC_HTC_Opera9_WWE_2745.html
then install upgrade... read end document.
If you have QVGA DEVICE install
http://www.4shared.com/file/73664351/b49a6a91/Opera9_WWE_2808_qvga.html
If you have old version on this Link you can Update to 2808 Version
http://www.4shared.com/file/73564410/242afb28/Opera_2808_update.html
3) Flash Cab
there is a beautiful Thread to explain and install (view link) (For my opinion install My_Flash.cab)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423860
4) Flash DLL Plugin to put on "\windows\opera9\plugins" to enable Opera to use Flash Installed (Skip this step, if you use Opera_2808_update on step 2)
(this version is OLD version 8.1.56.1 07/07/2008... is there a new version ? PLEASE POST)
http://www.4shared.com/file/73667918/b6083d09/NPFL3ppc.html
5) Null Keyboard (if you don't view keypoard when click on flash site) (nullkb.ARM4.CAB)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423860
Is need to reboot device !
if all ok... you can view youtube site !!!
If you have alredy install OPERA and My_Flash (Cooked ROM aka DIB Rom o Dutty Rom) you have only to update Opera.
On strange Cooked Rom is possibile to have problem to Update Opera File, for use Opera_2808_update (http://www.4shared.com/file/73564410/242afb28/Opera_2808_update.html) i suggest to:
1) Install TotalCommander (http://www.ghisler.com/ce.htm)
2) Unpack Opera_2808_update on Documents Directory
3) Using TotalCommander Copy or Move content of Opera_2808_update directory on \windows folder. In this mode you put 3 files:
\windows\Opera9.exe
\windows\OperaL.exe
\windows\Opera9\plugins\NPFL3ppc.dll
if all ok... you can view youtube site !!!

Here is review of youtube (and flash) working in Opera Mobile on a HTC Diamond with installation instructions
http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=1507
So I tied it out and I didn't get too far, I thought I'd just try the obvious first so I went straight to youtube, my keyboard just kept popping up and it felt slow. None of the videos I tried worked either, but I'm not so sure I installed the right flash .cab. If anyone can provide a link to the preferred flash installation I'll give it another go. I guess I can live without it though, the youtube app on my diamond is fine as it is. I would like really to watch bbc iplayer, but I don't suppose this would allow that even if it worked 100%

iplayer works on Skyfire and works quite well, the browser itself needs a little work yet though in my opinion.

Go to link I mentioned in my previous post
edit: solved
1. What else beside the flash comes with 2808 ?
I tried once newer Opera, but beside the new build number it was realy sux, It took long time to open the Opera itself (5 -10 seconds) instead 3 second with the orginal Opera comes with the Diamond (1522) , and the orginal Opera open flash as well (it open streaming player and play it..)
2. The links above didn't say if it's VGA version...
this trick works for me in a touch pro. (cooked into the Raphael 1.051 unprotected rom)
2808 is VGA and opens quickly 3 seconds + or -.
I visit Youtube & i can watch youtube videos, jerky but can watch them. maybe 5fps.
Normal flash sites, with no videos only flash animations play better in my touch pro.
Where Flash Cab ....
Sorry uniqueboy my frist post is incomplete...
You need to install first cab for using Flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423860 (My_Flash)

Not working yet
So here's what I've done on my Sprint Touch WM v6.1
Installed Opera 2808 on SD card.
Killed Opera9 process.
Installed My_flash to SD card.
Copied NPFL3ppc.dll to /Windows/Opera9/plugins directory.
Soft reset.
Opened Opera and went to YouTube.
No videos would display.
Sooooo....is there a step I missed? Seems to me like I got everything, but since other people are getting this to work I'm assuming I missed something.
AJ
Opera is alredy present on INTERNAL STORE... don't install Opera and My_flash on external memory !

Opera is not installed on internal storage (not anymore at least, though I don't remember uninstalling it).
The instructions seemed to indicate that I could install Opera9 and My_Flash to the storage card and it would work. Is that not true?

mmm, I read that it is better to install and operate in the same flash memory.
I've always seen opera and flash in \windows
I propose to do so

Yes I have an Opera9 directory in /windows and that's where I put the NPFL3ppc.dll file (plugins) but that is not where Opera launches from (the OperaWM.exe and OperaL.exe are not located there -they are on the storage card).

Have you possible to remove opera on SD card (unistall) and reinstall on \ ?
You can also:
1) Search where is presente Opera9 directory (with inside directory styles, locale, etc.) and put plugin\NPFL3ppc.dll
2) Search where is present Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe and update with my zip
3) Install My_Flash where is OPERA (if in SD, install on SD)
Reboot... and Pray !!
If don't run i suggest to HardReset Mobile to restore original installation and retry install.
Good luck

basically, i have been playing around with my opera to try and update it so i can view flash based content on websites within the browser.
ive managed to get this to work so now i can see youtube on the actual website! and also videos/sound files on the bbc website and other flash based websites.
i upgraded to opera 2808 and installed flashplayer7 for ppc from adobe and made a plugin file with a flash plugin in that too.
now my opera does work but i need to go into the opera file in explorer and click on the operaL file. it wont work if i go to the internet tab or to the programs list and choose it from there. the logo has dissappeared. i have the original orange ROM and havent had a windows movile before so have no idea how to change anything like the logos or to reset the programs buttons. if anyone can help i will happily buy you a beer!

Download the TCPMP Plug-in. Go to your mobile device's web browser and download the software. The file download prompt will appear, select "Run." Wait for the download to end.
Install the TCPMP Plug-in. After the download, the installation wizard will appear. Follow the instructions provided. It is best that you download this plug-in to your internal memory, choosing the external memory may cause errors.
Play FLV files by going to your Windows Mobile web browser, start TCPMP, by going to the "Main Menu" and "Applications." Visit the mobytube, site and search for a video, click on one of them and press "Play". Now you can start streaming videos online. You can also download the video directly to your Windows Mobile device and play it by clicking on the file.
thank you but like i said i already tried that and it dosent works
