Chromium and Flashplayer
Posted: 23 Jul 2017, 15:49
I like Chromium better, because it is open source. But it has no Flashplayer built in....
The solution is not trivial. Installing a Flashplayer plugin is not enough. You must extract chromium and edit the file 00-default.conf to tell chromium which version of Flashplayer you are using and where did you install it.
My 00-default.conf reads:
# Default settings for chromium.
# This file is sourced by /usr/bin/chromium
# Options to pass to chromium:
CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libpepflashplayer.so --ppapi-flash-version=26.0.0.131"
The colored text is my edit. You must edit yours correspondingly and repack your chromium.
Cheers!
