I didn't think there was any audio on that video. Might be worth finding another flowplayer to check, but older versions aren't so easy to find.

I suppose I'm still thinking about a log window, yes.

Looks like it works.
I'm actually having the other issue around: video ok, no audio.
Haven't looked at logs to tell what it is, most likey some
plugin missing.

BTW, are you still thinking about support for a "log window"
from gui ?

And does this work with gst now? ffmpeg is fine (for the old flowplayer - the new one, 3.0, is SWF9). (URL for an old player: http://lehrerfortbildung-bw.de/werkstatt/video/flashfilme/flowplayer/index.html )

First difference worth noticing (< is strk, > is bwy):

< DEBUG: Unable to retrieve a valid audio sink from ~/.gnashrc
< DEBUG: Got a non-NULL audio sink; its wrapper name is: autoaudiosink0
---

> DEBUG: Got a non-NULL audio sink; its wrapper name is: alsasink0

I attached the output of -vv with timestamp removed
for comparison with your run bwy.
Note that I have swf errors activated too.

Help->About tells me:
Built against gstreamer version: 0.10.14

What's there ?

Beside, I would expect some ERROR line in these cases, but
I'm not getting any.

Also works with the attached player (both sound and video, fortunately my video is not RMS singing).

The flowplayer at http://flowplayer.org and the one at http://lehrerfortbildung-bw.de/werkstatt/video/flashfilme/flowplayer/index.html
work fine with gstreamer 0.10.17 (with video as well).

A build with gstreamer 0.10.14 doesn't work (neither sound nor video).

onStatus is definitely a likely suspect, because in the Gstreamer handler the calls are based upon the documentation, not on what the proprietary player does.

onStatus callbacks with reference player are:

1. NetStream.Play.Start
2. NetStream.Buffer.Full

With Gnash (gst) we get:

1. NetStream.Buffer.Empty
2. NetStream.Buffer.Full
3. NetStream.Play.Start
4. NetStream.Buffer.Full
5. NetStream.Play.Start
6. NetStream.Buffer.Full
7. NetStream.Play.Start
...

Could be one of the problems...

Another thing worth noticing is that with gstreamer the sound (and the seek bar) loop back when over, while they don't with ffmpeg.

Suggest me it's something to do with status notifications.

One thing to note is that the seek bar plays fine with gstreamer
while it doesn't with ffmpeg.

The attached build of FlowPlayer loads and play a file named RMS.flv from the same dir it's loaded from.
I haven't attached the flv as I think it's irrilevant.

The problem is that it works with the ffmpeg backend and doesn't
with the gstreamer one.
Note that the flv itself works with my gstreamer version when
loaded by the youtube player (offline setup) so must be some
other problem related to the player itself.

Still, ffmpeg works, so doesn't seem a core or actionscript
issue.

There is no error reported by the gstreamer backend.
The only thing I can think of is some kind of race condition.
