Flowplayer (sometime) crash browser before playing

Posted: Feb 17, 2010

Hi,

My flowplayer crash FireFox just right before video was played. Google Chrome did not crash but report "broken plugin". It fixed after I reopen browser (on FireFox) and after I refreshed the page (on Google). I don't use much IE, so I am not sure if it also has problem. I noticed this on many computers.

Detail:
flowplayer.commercial-3.1.5.swf
flowplayer.rtmp-3.1.3.swf
flowplayer-3.1.4.min.js

Firefox 3 and Chrome 4
Flash Player version 10 (I think version 9 as well).
Windows XP SP3
Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server

- please let me know if you need more information.

Please post a link to a test page showing this issue.

For simplicity and to minimize the possibility of conflicts please make a test page with only the flowplayer configuration/install in it.

This could be cache related but without seeing a test page its just a guess.

I just checked the above link and it seems to be playing in FF3.6 correctly.

for cleanliness you may want to remove the href value from the anchor tag

<a id="fms"
  style="display:block;width:400px;height:300px;margin:auto;">
</a>

Yes, the problem happened randomly - When refresh, it fixed the problem. I cannot find the pattern yet. I got plug-in broken again today on Chrome.

I also have same problem and I was forced to discontinue the use of flowplayer because it caused high CPU utilization problems and the browser (Google chrome) crashed alot when playing videos with flowplayer. Has a solution been found yet?

The crash appears to stop when I set autoBuffering: false

Thanks dataincc. Do you have any performance concern about turning off autobuffering?
