This Flash Player update fixes playback of protected ("DRM") content |
12 |
(such as videos on Google Play Movies, Amazon Instant Video, Flixster |
13 |
Digital Copy, and other similar services). |
14 |
|
15 |
If you are still experiencing issues with such services even after |
16 |
installing this update, please close your browser, open a terminal window, |
17 |
and execute the following two commands to clear the Adobe Access DRM |
18 |
directories as instructed by Adobe: |
19 |
$ cd ~/.adobe/Flash_Player |
20 |
$ rm -rf NativeCache AssetCache APSPrivateData2 |
21 |
|
22 |
Adobe Flash Access DRM module depends on freedesktop.org HAL which |
23 |
is not provided on Mageia as it has been deprecated. To satisfy the HAL |
24 |
dependency, Chris Horler's hal-flash compatibility layer has been |
25 |
incorporated into the flash-player-plugin package. The hal-flash library |
26 |
provides the subset of the HAL API used by Flash Player by wrapping udisks. |
