Note: Make sure the git package is installed on your PC or you won’t be able to build Fresh Player. Building a new player from the sourceįirst, clone the latest version of the source code using Git. Alternatively, ask the developer directly. Use the names listed for Fedora, Debian, and Ubuntu to find the equivalents on your operating system. If you’re running something different and want to build the plugin on your system, it might be a good idea to read all the dependencies. Unfortunately, the official Github page for new players only describes the specific dependencies needed for Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora. Sudo dnf install cmake gcc gcc-c++ pkgconfig ragel alsa-lib-devel openssl-devel glib2-devel pango-devel mesa-libGL-devel libevent-devel gtk2-devel libXrandr-devel libXrender-devel libXcursor-devel libv4l-devel mesa-libGLES -devel ffmpeg-devel libva-devel libvdpau-devel libdrm-devel pulseaudio-libs-devel libicu-devel Sudo apt-get install cmake gcc g++ pkg-config ragel libasound2-dev libssl-dev libglib2.0-dev libpango1.0-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libevent-dev libgtk2.0-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libxcursor-dev libv4l-dev libgles2-mesa-dev libavcodec-dev libva-dev libvdpau-dev libdrm-dev libicu-dev fedora Follow the instructions to obtain these dependencies for your Linux distribution. In order to compile, you will first need to satisfy all the libraries and programs used to compile it. Ideally, the best way to get it working is to compile the latest version from source. Installation of dependenciesįresh Player is not installed like a normal program, as it is a plugin.
Getting it to work takes some tinkering, but once it’s up and running, Firefox will stop seeing warnings to “install a modern version of flash” etc. It is done with the “Fresh Player” tool.įresh Player includes the Chrome Pepper Flash plugin in such a way that it works like any other plugin in Firefox. Fortunately, some Firefox fans who want to see a modern version of the flash plugin working in their favorite browser have found a way to use the Chrome Flash plugin in Firefox. Firefox has been locked to the same version of Adobe Flash since 2012, and that won’t change anytime soon. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Firefox.
It’s not hard to see why, as Google provides an always-up-to-date flash plugin. This is why most of the Linux users have switched to Google Chrome. Contrary to popular belief, the Adobe Flash Plugin is still very important for online content, especially in a world where people use web-based subscription services to view media.
