Issues with Flash Lite 3 Video

Hi,

actually this issue is really close to my heart as well right now - any new ideas for a solution?

Hi,

I'd also like to chime in on this --

I'm currently working on a Flash Lite 3 demo on my N95 8GB which uses a fair amount of FLV playback.

I had been running the Flash Lite 3.0 developer preview, installed and ran fine. I started a video, and everything seemed to be ok.

I decided to update the firmware on my N95 8GB (now it's at 15.0.15 or something like that) and suddenly this weird bug started to show up. Whenever ANY video starts playing, the entire device goes into landscape mode. It never switches back either. Since I'm remapping the softkeys (and I'm in fullscreen mode) to allow the softkeys to work at all, I can't select "rotate screen" from the Flash Player menu. So the entire app is stuck in landscape.

That would be fine if the app was designed for landscape, but it's supposed to be in portrait all the time!

I don't understand how this could have been intended to be a feature - make all videos play in landscape? what??

Hopefully you guys can implement a fix (meaning: turn that feature OFF!) as SOON as possible. I would pay $$$ if I could get a fixed private build by tomorrow. :P

Is there any way to rollback the Flash Player version to the Developer Preview? I already tried to install it over the updated firmware's version but it says it's a built-in feature now.

Thanks very much.

Good News - this issue has been identified - and fixed.
Bad news - it is not public yet - so you will have to wait a little time before you can verify and continue development with FLV projects.

Hi,

If there's *any* way I could get access to the fixed version immediately, please let me know.
It can be in the form of a fixed symbian DLL, new .sis file, anything... I can write a sis installer to patch my local copy

Kinda desperate here...

Thanks,

Great to know this is sorted

Matt, if you are desperate you could try contacting a Nokia repair center - they may be able to flash your phone to an earlier version. But thats pretty desperate - might be easier to just get another phone!


Cheers

matt, unfortunately you have to wait until firmware fix is out (I do not have the dates for that either)
