about:plugins in mozilla browsers for the plugin version.

There shouldn't be a problem with detection any more. Make sure you're using at least version 0.8.4 of Gnash.

Sandro,

The still seems to be buggie... I have a problem loading kartoo.com even after visiting the page http://www.kartoo.com/detect.swf to see if my flash player is good. How do I know which flash player i'm using? I would like to help out with the debug.

Please let me know if detection works now.
As for the shared object, that's just not implemented yet.

I tried using 3 letters for the arch (GSH) and that fixed detection on http://www.kartoo.com. Again, we might want to mimic actual system name rather then encoding the "Gnash" part, but for now at least kartoo.com detector is happy.

Which version of the proprietary player doesn't it detect ?
I confirm it still doesn't detect Gnash (even with patch #6151 applied)

I've posted a patch to fix version detection in Patch #6151.

The kartoo version detector is itself broken, though, because it works if you set $version to "WIN 8,0,99,0" but not "UNIX 8,0,99,0". Probably it relies on a 3-letter OS string or specifically looks for "WIN". I haven't explored further. It doesn't detect the Adobe flash player either. So not our problem.

http://www.kartoo.com uses an SWF5 movie to detect the version:

http://www.kartoo.com/detect.swf

But the detection evidently fails.

And the search result itself, http://www.kartoo.com/kartoo4.swf,
is an SWF6 which fails with an unimplemented error:

ERROR: Unimplemented: sharedobject_getlocal
