No idea. I'm not registering to fix this.

Niconico Douga (nicovideo.jp) can be best explained as Japan's answer to Youtube with quite a respectable marketshare. Unique features include the ability to post real-time comments to be displayed along with the video. The whole interface is presented through Flash.

Using the latest Gnash (0.8.3, non-cvs) the following problems occur:
1. Videos simply don't play. The interface itself loads fine but aborts with an illegible error. This error apparently only pops up once per gnash instance/firefox window?
2. Japanese font display doesn't work at all. The error box as well as the menus are displayed as garbage and boxes if at all. Note that buttons display fine because they are graphics.
3. The date display at the upper right corner is bugged and doesn't diplay anything meaningful.

Running Firefox3 from the commandline throws no errors or warnings. Youtube works (except for seeking), so this is probably a site-specific problem.


As a quick guide for signing up:
On the main site, click the red button at the upper right corner to reach the sign-up form.
First field: mail address
Second field: nickname
The combobox you can leave alone
Radio buttons: choose either, it's only for gender
Next three fields: birthdate
Next combobox: Choose whatever you want (Japanese prefecture)
Next two fields: Password and password confirmation
The next two fields: Secret question + answer
From the last two radio buttons choose the lower one
Click the button at the bottom.
At the next screen, enter the capcha and press the second button from the bottom.
You should now be able to log in with your email address and your password. Choose any of the numerous categories (upper right in anime if you're into that :P) to get started.
