Flash on Linux/Android problems

[Raziaar]

Hey guys... I'm having a hell of a frustrating time here.

I'm trying to view Member Sponsor videos over on 3DBuzz since I just recently subscribed to the service, and I can't seem to view the videos on my brother's ubuntu linux netbook or his Android phone, when it seems I should be able to.

The problem is apparently on my end, because other people have been able to view them. It doesn't seem to be a regular flash issue, but an issue with encrypted flash videos.

Does anybody know anything?

I've already done things like sudo apt-get remove and sudo apt-get install etc to remove and reinstall my flash installations(though the flash in chrome never seems to be removed), but I still suffer through the issues.

When playing the video I get a "Connection Issue. Please refresh the browser" which doesn't work when I refresh it.



Helllp Meeeee... <sigh>

This seems to be an SSL issue... and I can't resolve it.

I'm so bummed over this! This is driving me insane!

Somebody help me please!

You guysssssss.... are there no linux experts on here that can help my noobish ass?

Damn this sucks! If anybody out there knows anything I can try, I would love it.

Again, the problem is I can't use my brothers ubuntu linux netbook to view ssl encrypted flash videos. Not at work and not even on my home line. I've tried reinstalling the flash on the netbook, I've tried everything, but I can't think of anything else!

Stop using Linux. Problem solved! Nobody needs to use Linux for anything other than servers or some really specific, probably stupid reason.

As for an actual answer, can't help ya buddy. I'm not a MS on their site and don't know where else I could get encrypted videos from, so I can't help you with the droid phone either. I can use my phone to watch the regular videos on their site just fine though.

Thanks for the response at least Krynn.

Yeah I know I don't want to use this netbook, as I hate it and I hate linux... but I don't have any other alternatives. We have a full sized older laptop I can use, but the hinge is completely busted out.
