Either way, glad it works. And as I mentioned, my offer still stands. If you want to take this project further, just let me know and I'll give you write access.
I am probably too much of a novice programmer to help your project in any meaningful sense.
Thus far ive only briefly tested the code, so far i haven't even got it to "Play" and "Loop" yet hopefully i can get this going on my day off!
(Got other projects and working full time ATM), i tested it by adding controls to my Swf as this was the fastest way
Im not sure if i would be able to add much to it.
You mentioned having trouble under Linux
+ This project is still in pre-alpha status.
+
+ I have had moderate success under Windows with the Acrobat Reader
+ and Flash Player plugins. Unfortunetaly I am still battling
+ under Linux, but another developer has reported some success
+ with modifications not in this repository.
Ive only ever made programs for Windows so i probably wouldn't be able to do anything for Linux,
Though i do want that to work as it would come in handy.
My plan is to make the program for Windows iron out bugs and thoroughly testing the code.
once i know it works see if it can be ported to linux.
First got the idea to make a program for running plugins when something needed java but chrome wouldn't work with it, After the whole Flash 2020 thing i knew something needed to be done.
For example: I can't remember off the top of my head if I managed to implement passing values to Flash and retrieving values from Flash. I remember that become a requirement later in our desktop application, but I can't recall if I implemented that in MozillaPluginPanel.
My plan for the HTML in the <object> and <applet> was to create an INI with all applicable data such as size scale Quality etc, Flashes that interact with the Html are quite rare but it is something i keep in mind
its mainly for software preservation as sites like this for example, wouldn't work with the "Flash Projector" or the Ocx(in app)
http://host-d.oddcast.com/php/application_UI/doorId=137/clientId=49/The games and movies created for plugins are just as worthy of preservation as any DOS or console game yet there is no serous attempt at an "emulator"
as these will never work on archive.org,
but archival is still possible as if all files are downloaded and what information the app try's to retrieve from the net can be redirected/intercepted(by my app) a ROM could be created.
Hell you could even have a stripped down Linux in WebAsm virtual pc running a program like what i have in mind and it would be almost identical to the original, that would be a bit bloated but if moores law applies...
Html 5 content is usually larger in file size anyway not to mention the enormous size difference in video files and native vector based flash movies
