miro 4.0.1 in Ubuntu 11.04 will not play Youtube videos

Because you haven't configured it or there is an issue. Simple.

Can you give the output of:

lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep miro

Thanks

i new user with Ubuntu can help me with support drivers and software

I dunno how in Hell that got changed to Spanish. I am NOT in Colombia.

In future, if a command is given on one line, keep it on one line, don't chop up commands as you may cause errors. The EXACT command was given so you can copy and paste the command. This removes user error.

sudo apt-get --purge remove adobe-flash-properties-gtk; sudo dpkg -P flashplugin-installer; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y install flashplugin-nonfree

Should now be ok

Any further ideas?

sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 6A9653F936FD5529

Can you rerun the first command I gave, what is output?

Thanks

No.
How in heck can I configure Miro to use the existing flash install?

Try:

mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins; cp /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins

Then retry miro.

I got:
brashley46@ross-desktop:~$ mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins; cp
cp: missing file operand
Try `cp --help' for more information.
brashley46@ross-desktop:~$ /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
bash: /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so: Permission denied

I presumed this meant there was an extra space somehow introduced in between cp and /usr/share ... so then I did:
brashley46@ross-desktop:~$ mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins; cp /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
brashley46@ross-desktop:~$

by hand and got no joy.

The command you made by hand has worked (no news is good news in Linux), does it now pick it up ok?

got no joy. I.e. no, Miro still wants me to install Flash. Is there a config file I can edit or something?? Sheesh. This is really getting old.

Hmm.

andy@D420:~$ apt-cache policy miro

How did you install miro?

from the Ubuntu Software Centre.
If I run that command I get:

brashley46@ross-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy miro

brashley46@ross-desktop:~$

So you have added a 3rd party server and installed from that. Have you tried removing the PPA and Miro, then installing the version in the official Natty repo?

I do not remember why I installed that ppa ... is 4.0.1 in the official repo?

Answer: It's not. So I went into Synaptic, disabled the miro-releases ppa, uninstalled miro, deleted the .miro folder from my machine, downloaded miro 3.5.1 from the official repo ... and it will will not play Youtube videos. Khrappe. Lessee ... I now run mkdir -p ~/.mozilla/plugins; cp /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
and get ... you guessed it ...
"You need to upgrade your flash player to watch this video. Download it from Adobe."

Incidentally, I now get

brashley46@ross-desktop:~$ lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf; dpkg -l | grep miro

 again and still nothing.

Hi, can you try to update the flash plugin pkg using this comand:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Let me know, thanks

Still nothing, Massimo ... thanks anyway.

I googled a lot for solution and didn't find any good one.
I think this is Miro bug, but I don't know the software. I'll try one more solution. Thanks many for you patience

Got the same problem with Ubuntu 11.10 and Miro 4.0.3-2.
Flash is working fine in Chromium and Firefox but miro tells me I had to install it first.
The adobe-flashplugin installed is 11.1.102.55-0oneiric1.
