Firefox and freshplayerplugin


Hi,

I run Fedora 24 x86_64 and i have installed freshplayerplugin from rpmfusion.

But the plugin isn't detected by Firefox

At the end of pluginreg.dat file, i have these lines :
[INVALID]
/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libfreshwrapper-flashplayer.so:$
1468416467000:$

Any ideas to fix that ?

Do you have Pepperflash plugin installed? It only works with that.
Peperflash is the actual plugin, freshplayer just helps firefox to see it.

I installed it by installing the full google-chrome. I also use Chromium so linked Chromium to Chrome's PepperFlash, so both Chromium & Firefox therefore have the latest, and I just don't use Chrome itself. I don't believe there is any package of PepperFlash for Fedora unless there's a new copr for it (the prior copr repo that had pepperflash is gone).

EDIT:

I did a little searching and it looks like sourceforge has pepperflash that you can install. Shows it's a copr repository, so should be able to add it and install through DNF.
