Opera 7.54 and Flash Player

Postby DiscoFever » Sun 14 Nov, 2004 8:34 pm

Why won't macromedia flash player work with Opera. when using netscape i encountered this problem which said i needed to get the flash player to play a certain game. I followed all the steps listed and still could not get it to work. i could not play any movie trailers or videos on Netscape either. is this an AOL issue or just a netscape issue. when i switch over to my mozilla browser the flash plays fine.

:(

If you're trying to use Netscape's XPI installer in Opera, that won't work at all. You can either go download the Flash Player Redistributable for NS-compatibles, or, if you have an NS4 (not NS6/7 or Moz), copy the plugin DLL and Java class from your Plugins folder to your Opera plugins folder.

I switched the browser indentification from "Opera" to MSIE 6.0" and now the netscape pages do not say that i need a upgrade of my Flash player. and the games work fine.The Netscape videos ( on their home page still do not play)

Thank;s for your help
