Any reason not to close it, then?

The movie no longer needs to be restarted to play.

I can play this animation in the browser with latest CVS, and does need to be restarted in the playback-menu before correctly starting.

My bad. I called "example video" but it wanted to say "animation".
I know nearly nothing about flash, but AFAIK it can be used to store MPEG-like natural videos (when I say MPEG-like, I mean a bitmap video compressed with Fourier transform and motion compensation), or vector synthetic videos (called "animations").
The video I linked to certainly looks like an animation.
Back on topic, how can you have a flash version error? You can just grab the video with wget and lauch gnash on it. That is what I did.

Ah, I got confused when I saw the i810 line. I can't get the URL you supplied to work anyway. For me there seems to be a Flash player version error, so it refuses to do anything. Video is still a work in progress, so it's not a suprise that there could be a bug.

VIDEO_CARDS="-i810"
means that gnash was built whithout i810 support. Also, I don't have that chip (AFAIK). My video card is a cheap Nvidia Gforce 4 .
I'm using the free nv driver, without acceleration. I don't even remember if I have DRI enabled (I mess a lot with configurations, including the kernel). Anyway, I think it makes no difference since my video driver supports no acceleration.

Genbtoo has a known problem with DRI (OpenGL) on the I810 and i815 graphics processor that leaks memory, and causes the problems similar to the one you described. Using AGG should have bypassed that, but just to be paranoid, have you tried doing the same test with DRI hardware accleration turned off ?
The "loading" bug is a new one, I've recently been having similar loading issues where it never gets out of the load state.

I forgot to say:
This is Gentoo Linux, 2006.1/desktop profile. I build Gnash from the ebuild net-www/gnash-0.7.2_p20099999.
I built gnash quite recently from cvs (the above mentioned Gentoo ebuild fetches from cvs).
Linux version is 2.6.19.
The tests were made with gnash used as a stand alone player.
Gnash was built with USE-flags "agg ffmpeg gstreamer nsplugin xml -kde" VIDEO_CARDS="-i810"
where the "-" in front of kde means that kde support was disabled.

I'm using gnash to view Flash in Firefox (well, actually Swiftfox).
When trying to view animations from http://www.charges.com.br, the animations doesn't start, (it seems to me that they cannot get out of the "loading" animation), but when I tell gnash to restart the movie, it plays correctly.
Anyway, the CPU usage sometimes gets quite high (near 100% on my Athlon XP 2600+ 512 MB RAM). Sometimes I get audio/video desynch (which seems correlated with CPU usage). High CPU usage is the rule, not the exception: above 50% is very common and, as I said, sometimes it gets to nearly 100%.
Also, once Gnash made swiftfox hang, until I performed a killall gnash. I believe a plugin should be automatically killed when it hangs, because many people don't know how to kill processes. However, I don't know if this should happen on the gnash side or on the Firefox side.
An example video is http://charges.uol.com.br/charges/20070219som.swf
